0a670d7ead refactor: add type annotations
Annotations were generated with pyannotate:
https://github.com/dropbox/pyannotate

We are running in strict mode, which is awesome!

This affects a large part of the code base, which might be an issue for
people running a fork of Tutor. Nonetheless, the behavior should not be
affected. If anything, this process has helped find and resolve a few
type-related bugs. Thus, this is not considered as a breaking change.

728ef966dc v11.0.0 (2020-12-09)
- 💥[Improvement] Upgrade Open edX to Koa
- 💥 Setting changes:
    - The ``ACTIVATE_HTTPS`` setting was renamed to ``ENABLE_HTTPS``.
    - Other ``ACTIVATE_*`` variables were all renamed to ``RUN_*``.
    - The ``WEB_PROXY`` setting was removed and ``RUN_CADDY`` was added.
    - The ``NGINX_HTTPS_PORT`` setting is deprecated.
- Architectural changes:
    - Use Caddy as a web proxy for automated SSL/TLS certificate generation:
	- Nginx no longer listens to port 443 for https traffic
	- The Caddy configuration file comes with a new ``caddyfile`` patch for much simpler SSL/TLS management.
	- Configuration files for web proxies are no longer provided.
	- Kubernetes deployment no longer requires setting up a custom Ingress resource or custom manager.
    - Gunicorn and Whitenoise are replaced by uwsgi: this increases boostrap performance and makes it no longer necessary to mount media folders in the Nginx container.
    - Replace memcached and rabbitmq by redis.
- Additional features:
    - Make it possible to disable all plugins at once with ``plugins disable all``.
    - Add ``tutor k8s wait`` command to wait for a pod to become ready
    - Faster, more reliable static assets with local memory caching
- Deprecation: proxy files for Apache and Nginx are no longer provided out of the box.
- Removed plugin `{{ patch (...) }}` statements:
    - "https-create", "k8s-ingress-rules", "k8s-ingress-tls-hosts": these are no longer necessary. Instead, declare your app in the "caddyfile" patch.
    - "local-docker-compose-nginx-volumes": this patch was primarily used to serve media assets. The recommended is now to serve assets with uwsgi.

bce6432d85 Improve job running in local and k8s
Running jobs was previously done with "exec". This was because it
allowed us to avoid copying too much container specification information
from the docker-compose/deployments files to the jobs files. However,
this was limiting:

- In order to run a job, the corresponding container had to be running.
This was particularly painful in Kubernetes, where containers are
crashing as long as migrations are not correctly run.
- Containers in which we need to run jobs needed to be present in the
docker-compose/deployments files. This is unnecessary, for example when
mysql is disabled, or in the case of the certbot container.

Now, we create dedicated jobs files, both for local and k8s deployment.
This introduces a little redundancy, but not too much. Note that
dependent containers are not listed in the docker-compose.jobs.yml file,
so an actual platform is still supposed to be running when we launch the
jobs.

This also introduces a subtle change: now, jobs go through the container
entrypoint prior to running. This is probably a good thing, as it will
avoid forgetting about incorrect environment variables.

In k8s, we find ourselves interacting way too much with the kubectl
utility. Parsing output from the CLI is a pain. So we need to switch to
the native kubernetes client library.

6a68c4cc20 Progress on the plugins/k8s front
This commit introduces many changes:
- a fully functional minio plugin for local installation
- an almost-functional native k8s deployment
- a new way to process configuration, better suited to plugins

There are still many things to do:
- get rid of all the TODOs
- get a fully functional minio plugin for k8s
- add documentation for pluginso
- ...

334f3e720e Towards a stable Kubernetes integration
Missing features:
- https certificates
- xqueue
- lms/cms workers

Moreover, we scalability issues due to the uploaded file storage in the
lms/cms. To address this issue we need to develop the MinIO plugin so
that it becomes compatible with Open edX.

3b108d21de 🔌 Introduce a plugin system for tutor
This adds the basic feratures that we need for a working plugin system,
but there are still many TODOs in the codebase.

407659ff06 Major refactoring of config module
Configuration loading was overly complex. Here, we simplify it
drastically with reasonable defaults. Hacky additional variables are
unncessary now that we use custom jinja2 filters.
