Allowing for SESSION messages to have render position (bug #1248318)

- the add_ok_msg, add_error_msg, and add_info_msg functions now take a
'placement' parameter. When set it will only display the message at that
location. Defaults to 'messages', the current place they are displayed.
eg:
$SESSION->add_ok_msg('hello world!', false, 'loginbox');

- to get the message to display at new location one needs to add to
the relevant template
{dynamic}{insert_messages placement=[placement]}{/dynamic}
where [placement] = the placement parameter you are after
eg:
{dynamic}{insert_messages placement='loginbox'}{/dynamic}

Title:
  session messages to display in alternative places

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Wanting certain messages that get added to $_SESSION['messages'] to
  display in places other than the <div id="messages"></div> place at
  top of page.

  To handle this I am thinking that a 'placement' variable needs to be
  added to message items. This way one could easily specify the place on
  the screen where the message is to appear.

  So that the code to add a message to an alternative place, for example
  under the login auth box, would be:

    $SESSION->add_ok_msg($mymessage, false, 'loginbox');

  and in the login.tpl template have

    {dynamic}{insert_messages placement='loginbox'}{/dynamic}

  
  for all the session messages with out placement specification - they would get displayed in the default place.
