This files describes API changes for course formats

Overview of this plugin type at http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Course_formats

=== 3.2 ===
* Callback delete_course is deprecated and should be replaced with observer for event \core\event\course_content_deleted
* Course formats can overwrite get_default_course_enddate function to set the default course end date for new courses.
  format_base::get_default_course_enddate uses the new "Course duration" site setting to calculate the default course end date
  from the default course start date.
* New method format_base::supports_news() which is used to determine whether an Announcements forum will be automatically created on
  course creation. For course format plugin developers, please override format_base::supports_news() to return true if you want the
  Announcements forum to be created upon course creation and remove the block names defined in format_base::get_default_blocks().

=== 3.1 ===
* Course format may use the inplace_editable template to allow quick editing of section names, see
  https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Inplace_editable and MDL-51802 for example implementation.

=== 3.0 ===
* Course formats should now use section_edit_control_items and use the returned array of controls items and their attributes to create a
  renderable menu or array of links.  Plugin calls to section_edit_controls will now include the section edit control in the returned array.
* The section name is now wrapped in a new span (.sectionname > span), process_sections method in format.js should be updated so .sectionname
  DOM node's wraps the section title in a span. You can look at how to implement the change in course/format/topics/format.js or MDL-48947.
* New method format_base::get_default_section_name retrieves the default section name for the given course format. The base
  implementation basically uses the implementation of format_base::get_section_name. The method can be overridden in
  format_base subclasses that use sections (i.e. format_topics, format_weeks). In relation to the changes made for the default
  section name, the default section name is now being shown when editing the section information.

=== 2.9 ===
* Course formats may support deleting sections, see MDL-10405 for more details.
  format_section_renderer_base::section_edit_controls() is now also called for
  stealth sections and it also returns "delete" control.

=== 2.8 ===
* The activity chooser now uses M.course.format.get_sectionwrapperclass()
  to determine the section selector, rather than a hard-coded `li.section`.
* Activity duplication in /course/modduplicate.php is deprecated and is now done in /course/mod.php.  Deprecated calls will be honored by
  redirecting to /course/mod.php for 3rd party plugin support.
* New method format_base::section_get_available_hook() allows plugins to override section availability.

=== 2.7 ===
* The ->testedbrowsers array no longer needs to be defined in supports_ajax().
* format_section_renderer_base::section_hidden has an new second optional argument $courseorid.
  If provided the section name is printed in the not available string when displaying the hidden section.

=== 2.6 ===

* core_course_renderer::course_section_cm_edit_actions has two new optional arguments and now uses and action_menu component.
* core_course_renderer::course_section_cm has been altered to call core_course_renderer::course_section_cm_edit_actions with the two new arguments
* An additional course renderer function has been created which allows you to
  specify the wrapper for a course module within a section (e.g. the <li>).  This can be
  found in core_course_renderer::course_section_cm_list_item().

=== 2.5 ===

* Functions responsible for output in course/lib.php are deprecated, the code is moved to
  appropriate renderers: print_section(), print_section_add_menus(), get_print_section_cm_text(),
  make_editing_buttons()
  See functions' phpdocs in lib/deprecatedlib.php
* Function get_print_section_cm_text() is deprecated, replaced with methods in cm_info

=== 2.4 ===

Course format API has been changed significantly. Instead of implementing callbacks course formats
may overwrite the class format_base. See format_legacy class for a template for upgrading course
format.

* Function settings_navigation::add_course_editing_links() is completely removed, course format
  functions callback_XXXX_request_key() are no longer used (where XXXX is the course format name)
* functions get_generic_section_name(), get_all_sections(), add_mod_to_section(), get_all_mods()
  are deprecated. See their phpdocs in lib/deprecatedlib.php on how to replace them
* Course formats may now have their settings.php file as the most of other plugin types
* Function format_section_renderer_base::is_section_current() is deprecated, overwrite/use
  function is_section_current in format class

=== 2.3 ===

* The new $course->coursedisplay option was introduced, users can now choose to display
  a section at a time if the course formats support it:
 - COURSE_DISPLAY_SINGLEPAGE indicates the teacher has chosen to display all sections on one page
 - COURSE_DISPLAY_MULTIPAGE indicates the teacher has chose to have seperate pages with each section.

* The parameter for 'currently active section' was standardised in core:
  - The course format is passed the currently live section through the $displaysection varaible to format.php
  - A 'section' paramter is the standardised way to pass around the current section in a course
  - Navigation no longer looks for custom parameters defined in callback_format_request_key
