[Bug 785472] [NEW] Eliminate all raise_memory_limit() calls

 

Public bug reported:

There are very few places in Mahara were we raise PHP's memory limit,
but it is bad practice since that memory may not be reclaimed by Apache
until that child process is terminated.

Unless we are confident that a particular operation is impossible to do
without raising the memory limit, we should rewrite code which fails to
work within 32 MB of memory.
