    User can_publish_artefact method too restrictive (bug #865911)
    
    The can_publish_artefact method on the User class, introduced in
    commit aba54873f4 (see bug #655631) is out of line with other
    permissions on the site when it comes to institution artefacts.
    
    Any institution member can include institution files on one of their
    own pages, but this method (currently used when putting images into
    forum posts) only allows publishing by institutional admins.
    
    This change adds publishing permission on institution artefacts for
    all institution members.

Title:
  Forum post downloads should be publicly available in a public forum

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In a public forum (such as the mahara community forum), posts are
  readable when users are not logged in. However, any files attached to
  a post are only available when logged in.

  As a result, you can only see images posted inline in a forum post
  when logged in. This also affects users receiving posts in e-mail, and
  through RSS feeds.

  Arguably, if a user receives e-mail updates for forum posts, then this
  requires a separate resolution since not all groups are public groups.
  If a user is in a non-public group and receives e-mail alerts for a
  forum post with an inline image, then we should probably re-write the
  location of the image and include it as an attachment to the e-mail.
