Title:
  User can_publish_artefact method too restrictive

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  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.  The
  permissions should be the same in both cases.  We should allow all
  institution members to include institution files in forum posts too,
  and if we decide this is too permissive, we should file another bug to
  make institution artefact publishing permissions more restrictive
  everywhere.
