    Add more flexible group jointypes (bug #610690)
    
    The four existing jointypes, 'open', 'controlled', 'request' and
    'invite' are mutually exclusive, but they don't need to be so strict.
    This patch introduces more flexibility in the way groups allow new
    members to join.
    
    * Group admins can always send membership invitations to a group, even
      if it's open or controlled
    * Membership requests can be enabled for any group unless it has open
      membership.
    * The grouptype now determines the set of roles available to a group,
      but no longer restricts the available join types.
    
    The db upgrade will preserve existing behaviour apart from enabling
    invitations on open, request, and controlled groups.

Title:
  Merging open/invite/request group types

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Just realized that I cannot invite other members to an open group
  (master.dev). When I create a group and want to invite a bunch of
  people from the start, it would be nice to have the possibility to
  invite multiple people like in an invite-only group.

  Or did you not provide the multiple invite option to avoid spammers
  creating groups and signing everybody up?
