List of changes:
* New OOP API using PHP namespace \core\session\.
* All handlers now update the sessions table consistently.
* Experimental DB session support in Oracle.
* Full support for session file handler (filesystem locking required).
* New option for alternative session directory.
* Official memcached session handler support.
* Workaround for memcached version with non-functional gc.
* Improved security - forced session id regeneration.
* Improved compatibility with recent PHP releases.
* Fixed borked CSS during install in debug mode.
* Switched to file based sessions in new installs.
* DB session setting disappears if DB does not support sessions.
* DB session setting disappears if session handler specified in config.php.
* Fast purging of sessions used in request only.
* No legacy distinction - file, database and memcached support the same functionality.
* Session handler name included in performance info.
* Fixed user_loggedin and user_loggedout event triggering.
* Other minor bugfixing and improvements.
* Fixed database session segfault if MUC disposed before $DB.
Limitations:
* Session access time is now updated right after session start.
* Support for $CFG->sessionlockloggedinonly was removed.
* First request does not update userid in sessions table.
* The timeouts may break badly if server hosting forces PHP.ini session settings.
* The session GC is a lot slower, we do not rely on external session timeouts.
* There cannot be any hooks triggered at the session write time.
* File and memcached handlers do not support session lock acquire timeouts.
* Some low level PHP session functions can not be used directly in Moodle code.
The PHP readfile function does not work for files more than 2GB.
This commit provides a wrapper that can be used so that files less
than 2GB are sent with readfile, and files larger than 2GB are
sent manually.
The change applies to all uses of pluginfile.php, although in
reality, backup files are probably the only ones likely to be more
than two gigabytes.
* core_useragent: Introduce is_vendor methods to improve readability
when we are just detecting if a browser is from a vendor, rather than
the exact version
* Remove uncessary browser version checks when we are just detecting
vendors - this makes the intention of our sniffing clearer.
* Remove sniffing for browsers which we do not support, grades/ajax/tinymce
all support modern browsers so there is no need to sniff for them.
This commit moves user agent related functionality out of several
core libraries and combines it into a more manageable class.
All core uses are converted and functions deprecated in favor
of the new class.

MDL-39688 has been successful in providing a solution for the issue but further
investigations done in MDL-39832 have got the evidence that the given solution
is more likely a workaround.
The options in constructor were renamed to setttings in order to prevent confusion.
This removes ignored CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, add newline header cleaning,
reworks proxy settings and some other minor issues.

Now when file was deleted in filemanager and new file with the same file was uploaded the references will be converted to copies exactly like UI warns in filemanager.
Also do not delete original information from draftfiles.
This is necessary because PHP in Windows does not have any certificates and some *nix systems have outdated or missing ca bundles too.
The order is:
1/ dataroot/moodleorgca.crt always wins - needs to be added manually by admin
2/ php.ini setting "curl.cainfo" is next
3/ on Windows libdir/cacert.pem is used because it does not have any default cert bundles
4/ system default is the last - the previous value, ok for properly configured *nix systems
The badges feature allows to integrate Mozilla "Open Badges" to issue, assign,
manage and display digital badges in Moodle. This feature supports:
-- badge creation and issuing based on criteria
-- badge baking and verification service
-- direct pushing of internal badges to external backpack
-- interanl and external badge display in Moodle
-- Moodle block to display latest badges
