Additions for course format Topics

[mwehr]

Hi,

This adds 2 more functions for the Topics course format. resolves #467

• Always show the section summary.
• Always show the initial section.

Both functionalities can be configured globally and per course.

The per course setting is realized via course custom fields.
The custom fields are created automatically by changing the associated admin settings.

Kind regards,
Mario

Hi @mwehr ,

many thanks for submitting the PR and sorry that it remained unhandled for so long.
We are just ramping up or PR reviewing again after we have established some more processes to keep the overview over our work.

As a result, we have created a board on https://github.com/orgs/moodle-an-hochschulen/projects/4/views/1 and have established a policy that every PR needs a corresponding issue which it solves.

May I ask you to quickly create a Github issue with a brief explanation of the goal which this PR tries to solve (basically it will be a copy & paste of the PR description, but you might want to add more details or screenshots as well)? I will then be able to add your issue to the board and review your PR.

Thanks,
Alex

Dear @mwehr could you please make sure the PHPDocChecker, JS Linter and Moodle Codechecker checks do pass?
There is nothing worrying there, just formal stuff.
Thanks in Advance!

Best,
Luca
