Title:
  Support for changing the session directory

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  As discussed on the forum:
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5815

  At least two sites have found it helpful to customize the location
  where Mahara stores its session files. The reason for this is because
  they're using a relatively slow NFS volume for their dataroot, which
  works okay for most of the files that Mahara uses, but tends to bog
  down when it's used for the PHP session save path.

  Their workaround is to hack session.php so that it stores the sessions
  in a directory on their local machine, somewhere outside the dataroot.
  This bug is for the idea of providing a config option for this, so
  that it will be unnecessary to hack session.php
