Creates a new 'Users' field in the search filters form. This field
requires new JavaScript and, to implement this, a new AJAX-callable
web service to search for users by name, with detailed restrictions
based on the current user's access to view profiles.
Implements core_user::search function which can search through the
names (and, if allowed, other identity fields) of all users visible
to the current logged-in user, within a course context or globally.
When using the AJAX autocomplete field, it allows JavaScript to add
custom HTML to selected options. For example, the user field from
the assign roles page includes an icon and other information by the
user's name.
Once you submit the form and the page reloads, there was no way to
provide this information back to the autocomplete field. HTML
<option> tag was used for the value names but it may only contain
text, not tags, so including it in the normal value did not work.
This change adds a new option for the autocomplete field that lets
you include HTML to override the default (text-only) value of the
label used to represent each option.
The new setting will allow to host the temporary backup files
into a specific target directory. Defaults to '$CFG->tempdir/backup'.
Calling make_backup_temp_directory() checks that the required sub-directory
will be properly created under the new target directory.
Previously the member functions get_initial_first and get_initial_last of flexible_table were public but deprecated due to being no
longer used. Now they are used by print_initials_bar and made protected. That allows classes deriving from flexible_table to access
the first and last name initials without having to use deprecated methods.
