Previously, quiz statistics processing happened on a scheduled task.
This task looked for all quizzes with completed attempts, then
determined if those quizzes had a statistics calculation that's newer
than the most recent attempt, then ran the statistics calculation if
needed. It was hard coded to stop processing after 1 hour.
The queries involved in determining which quizzes needed processing
weren't terribly efficient, and combined with the 1 hour limit this made
the statistics unusable on large sites, where they are the most useful.
This converts the scheduled task to an ad-hoc task, and uses an event
observer for mod_quiz\event\attempt_submitted to queue a task when
it is needed. This removes the need for a query to work out what needs
processing, and allows the task processing to be scaled up as needed.
MDL-78806 core: Remove redundant site name on page titles
* With the site name now being appended to the page titles, there
is no need to manually append the page titles.
This was causing the adhoc task to fail with a nopermission error, when
a user was unenrolled from a course before their assignment submission
could be converted into a pdf.
Comments from MDL-56810 indicate the correct approach is to not attempt
a conversion in those cases.
* Add sr-only column headers for the select and actions columns.
* Define unique IDs for the preset name links using array indices.
* Label the radio buttons via aria-labelledby attribute pointing to
the ID of the preset's link.
In the description of "Quiz attempt reviewed" events the user IDs of
the reviewer (typically the teacher) and the reviewee (typically the
student) were the wrong way round.
* Using the generator to create the forum discussions, the timecreated
of a discussion can be set before the user's last course access which
will prevent forum_print_recent_activity() from including this generated
discussion in the recent activity results. To work around this, generate
the forum discussion 1 second after the current time to make sure that
the user's last course access will always be before the discussion's
creation time.
* This patch also includes some optimisations by:
- Removing the unnecessary @javascript tag for the
`Time limit expires` scenario
- Bringing the discussion generation to each scenario to allow each
scenario to customise the data passed to the generator like for the
`Time limit expires` scenario.
- Navigating directly to the forum instance.
This commit does few things:
* Replace manual forum posts and replies to use data generator.
* It also changes the code to handle social forums.
* Other behat clean-ups and optimization.

This commit also does other things such as:
- Replace manual steps to setup gradebook by data generators
- Added support for outcomes and scales page resolvers
- Behat clean up
Before this change conversion tasks would be queued for assignments that
did not have the pdf annotation method enabled.
The change will also prevent queing when the plugin is disabled.
