=======================================
WARNING: DEV IS CURRENTLY VERY UNSTABLE.
This is a mega-checkin of the new Roles system. A lot of changes have
been made in core and modules.
Currently there are a lot of rough edges and known problems. We are
working hard on these .. .the reason for getting this into HEAD at this
stage is enable us to move faster (our branch was diverging from HEAD
too much).
Please keep an eye on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roles for current status
and information for developers on how to use the new Roles system.
The link allows the page to be reloaded, which saves people from only seeing the cached copy. This is the equivalent of doing Shift+Reload in most
browsers.

The wiki should display the 'edit' screen when a user tries to view a page
that doesn't exist. This output should not be filtered.

magic_quotes_gpc() disabled (because Moodle addslashes to
everything). Not a pretty hack, but it seems to work.

(just looking for one BIG problem in wiki - pagename is lost, so page
is never detected, so the edit page is showed once and again and again,
and again.......)
Added default values to migrate2utf8.xml, for any varchar and text field types, if the default values for these fields were not defined as '' in the MySQL table creation script.
Committed by vyshane
Added new function, import_backup_file_silently
Changed everything that prints stuff to check for a constant first.
Backup_flush checks a different constant, this is so that output can still
get flushed to the browser when necessary but not print <li>s everywhere.
Please test this!
This patch allows the much requested selection of individual instances of modules within a course to backup and restore.
It needs A LOT of testing and probably some prettyifying too.
Users can now be assigned to multiple groups. Thanks Yu!
Break out the Bob Marley!!
Otherwise groups work more or less like they did before.
This has been pretty well tested by Yu and myself, but since Yu started
uncovering lots of existing groups bugs it's possible there may be still
a few corner cases still lurking here and there.
Please help test this thoroughly for 1.6!!
ip instead. Such information is only stored in DB
(page->author) and not critical at all. Suggested
by Derry in http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=32171
because it was causing important delays when clients
weren't DNS-registered.

Complete refactoring of the system that was really awful (my fault!).

Note: Everything is merged from stable but the quiz module because it has
other changes not merged for now. I've skyped a message to Gustav about it.
