Eloy Lafuente (stronk7) 77342b96fc MDL-69308 upgrade: remove all the < 3.6.0 upgrade steps
This just deletes all the upgrade steps previous to 3.6.0. Some
small adjustments, like tweaking globals can also be applied
when needed.

Also includes an upgrade step to prevent upgrading from any
version < 2018120300 (v3.6.0) as anti-cheating measure.

Note that in this case, there wasn't any case of upgradelib
functions being used, hence we haven't to deprecate/remove
anything in codebase. When there is such a need, that is done
in separate commits (one for each function) and documented here.

See MDL-65809 commits for an example removing/deprecating a
good number of functions.

Official Chat Module for Moodle
------------------------------

The chat module now supports a backend daemon for
more efficiency.

It's still buggy and being worked on, but if you
want to test it and help out here are some quick
instructions:

1) Admin -> Config -> Modules -> Chat -> Settings

2) Set the method to "sockets" and set up the ports etc

3) Start the server like this (from the Unix command line):

   cd moodle/mod/chat
   php chatd.php --start &

4) Go to a chat room in Moodle and open it as normal.

------

KNOWN PROBLEMS

 - User list is not always working
 - Some browsers (eg Safari) cause lines to be repeated
   by 10 - 20 times
 - Occasionally "Document was empty" messages

Help solving these very welcome!
