    Allow staff to access the admin user search page (bug #919009)
    
    Staff members will be able to search through all users in their
    institutions, but they cannot edit a user unless they are also an
    administrator for them (institution or site administrator).
    
    Links from the usernames to the account settings page are only
    displayed when the logged-in user is an administrator for the listed
    user.
    
    The "edit selected users" button is only displayed to site and
    institutional admins, and the bulk actions page it links to now
    explicitly states which users have been filtered out due to lack of
    institutional admin privileges.
    
    Email addresses are removed from the list for staff users.
    
    If the logged-in user is an admin in one institution, and staff in
    another, email is displayed and usernames linked only for the
    'adminned' users.  The bulk actions page is still reachable, but any
    selected users who are not adminned by the logged-in user will be
    removed.

Title:
  Access list reporting

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In a school setting, a common problem is students failing to add
  appropriate access rights on pages that teachers should be able to see
  for assessment purposes.  If teachers can see a list of students'
  pages, and who they have been shared with, they can then identify and
  fix these problems quickly.  We could solve this problem by giving
  institutional and site staff access to the existing admin user search
  page (without letting them change anything), and also creating a new
  Access list reporting page.

  If institutions are used, institution admins and staff will have the
  user search list filtered by the institutions for which they have
  admin/staff rights, and will only be able to get reporting information
  on those users.
