tls renewal and generation was failing in cron jobs because of "The
input device is not a TTY" errors. This is because the "-it" docker
option does not work when a tty is not available.

When running "bundle exec rake search:initialize" in the forum, we were
getting the following error:
/openedx/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.4.0/rubygems/resolver.rb:235:in `search_for': Unable to resolve dependency: user requested 'did_you_mean (= 1.1.0)' (Gem::UnsatisfiableDependencyError)
It happens this error suddently happened because rubygems-update was not
pinned to a specific version. v3.0.4 was working and v3.1.2 was not.
As it happens, we don't need rubygems-update, so we simply get rid of it
entirely.
To do so, we had to create a new log_format.
Plugin developers are strongly encouraged to start using this log format
by adding the `access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log tutor;` directive to
their extra nginx configurations.
In order to load this log format early, the `tutor.conf` config file had
to be renamed to something early in the alphabet... (hence starting by
an underscore) Older users would face an error on nginx reload, so older
"tutor.conf" files are automatically removed on config save.
Previously, a common error when restarting e.g: the lms or the cms was
that nginx redirected to the wrong container. For instance:
access studio.localhost
tutor local restart lms cms
access studio.localhost
In the second call to studio.localhost, we were frequently trying to
access the LMS, which resulted in a 400 error.
We solve this issue by setting a TTL of 10s on the nginx proxy name
resolution.

The management plugin exposes an http API that makes it possible to
monitor rabbitmq. By default, we do not expose the management dashboard.
As a consequence, the API is only usable by other internal containers.
- [Improvement] Switch edx-platform from open-release/ironwood.2 tag to
the open-release/ironwood.master branch
- [Security] Upgrade django to 1.11.28
- [Improvement] Make it possible to configure the elasticsearch heap
size
- [Bugfix] Fix broken elasticsearch environment variables
- [Improvement] Restore more recent Android app version (#289).
There are too many patches on top of ironwood.2, and it's not practical
to pull them all one by one. We still want to build on top of a specific
version, and not a branch, so we use a dirty hack to guarantee that the
docker image is properly rebuilt by CI when we change it.
Because we are running a version of elasticsearch older than Methusalem,
the docker environment variables were not properly taken into account.
For instance, the cluster name and "mlockall" settings were incorrect,
as we could see by running:
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200 | grep cluster_name
...
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200/_nodes/process?pretty | grep mlock
...
"mlockall" : false
See
https://discuss.overhang.io/t/elastic-container-is-not-being-removed/312/3
for discussion.
This fix also introduces a new tutor configuration setting to adjust the
elasticsearch heap size.
A prior change used the ironwood.1 tag to build the Android app in an
attempt to solve #289. Turns out that this change was unnecessary. So
here we revert to a more recent release of the Android app. Instead of
building from the master branch (which might create suprises) we build
from a fixed release tag.
The source repo and version are customisable via build arguments.
