* Routine navigation through the quiz and question modules
* Fixed navbar through quiz and questions
* Pages headers added throughout
* Added method to turn a navigation node into a tabs array suitable for use with print tabs
Which really does not work in locales that use , as a decimal point.
Also, this commit fixes one performance problem in index.php with DB queries in a loop.
This was implemented by Matt Petro of the University of Wisconsin - Madison Engineering
School and Math Department. Many thanks. Reviewed by and committed by Tim Hunt.
This adds a new Overrides tab to the UI, with sub-tabs Group overrides and User overrides.
Each of those lists all the overrides that currently exist, and lets you manage them and
create more.
When a quiz is being attempted, the override that applies to the current user is combined
with the current quiz settings loaded from the quiz table (normally called $quiz).
If there are both user and group overrides, then just the specific user override is used (more specific).
If the user is in several groups, then the overrides are combined to give the most permissive set of options.
There is one new database table quiz_overrides, to store the overrides.
At the same time I have converted the calendar block to use YUI instead of overlib, this introduces one regression in that the panel is shown immediatly but should really have a minimal delay for usability.
This will be fixed once the theme changes for 2.0 have been commited
The code to print blocks in now in theme layout.php files. (Or in
moodle_core_renderer::handle_legacy_theme)
Code for printing blocks everywhere else has been stripped out.

The way the HTML for a block instance is generated has been cleaned
up a lot. Now, the block_instance generates a block_contents
object which gives a structured representation of the block,
and then $OUTPUT->block builds all the HTML from that.
How theme config.php files specify the layout template and block
regions by page general type has been changed to be even more flexible.
Further refinement for how the theme and block code gets initialised.
Ability for scrits to add 'pretend blocks' to the page. That is,
things that look like blocks, but are not normal block_instances.
(Like the add a new block UI.)
Things that are still broken:
* some pages in lesson, quiz and resource. I'm working on it.
* lots of developer debug notices pointing out things that
need to be updated.
There is a new implementation of require_js in lib/deprecatedlib.php,
based on $PAGE->requires.
There were a few other recently introduced functions in lib/weblib.php,
namely print_js_call, print_delayed_js_call, print_js_config and
standard_js_config. These have been removed, since they were never in
a stable branch, and all the places that used them have been changed
to use the newer $PAGE->requires->... methods.
get_require_js_code is also gone, and the evil places that were calling
it, even though it is an internal function, have been fixed.
Also, I made some minor improvements to the code I committed yesterday
for MDL-16695.
All that remains is to update all the places in core code that are
still using require_js.
(This commit also fixes the problem where the admin tree would not
start with the right categories expanded.)
* Reorder form fields to group things more logically.
** and on the corresponding admin page too.
* Set some options to be 'Advanced' by default:
** Apply penalties.
** Each attempt builds on the last.
** Decimal places for question grades.
** The five 'Extra restrictions on attempts' settings. (password, etc.)
* Admins can still change this to suit their institiution at Administration > Plugins > Activity modules > Quiz.
* These new defaults are applied if the admin had not previously set any fields to be advanced.
* Disable some filds when they are not applicable:
** Grading method, if num attempts = 1
** Penaly scheme, if adaptive mode = no
** Each attempt builds of last, if num attempts = 1
** Review after quiz closed options, if no close date.
** Delay between 1st and 2nd attempts, if num attempts = 1
** Delay between later attempts, if num attempts < 3
* Convert quiz.timelimit to be in seconds, for consistency, and ready for the new duration field type (MDL 18500).
** Including ensuring that backup and restore is backwards compatible.
* MDL-5537 New setting, questiondecimalpoints, so, for example, you can show the quiz grade as an integer, but have fractional question grades.
** There is a 'Same as overall decimal points' option, which is the default.
* Improve some field labels.
* Make corresponding changes in the help files.
And MDL-17568 minor niggles with new queston navigation:
* The bit that scrolls down to the question you just submitted in adaptive mode was not working with random questions.
* Teachers reviewing an open attempt were shown the qusetions as editable, not read only!
1. Fix this by factoring out a quiz_has_grades function.
2. Fix the quiz unit tests.
3. Fix quiz_has_feedback to return false for ungraded quizzes.
4. Fix use of get_records to do record_exists in quiz reports.
MDL-15537 - create oo attemptlib.php to hold shared code between attempt, summary and review.php
MDL-15541 - Refactor starting a new attempt into a new file startattempt.php
MDL-15538 - Rework attempt.php to use attemptlib.php
