Fixed help message positioning (Bug #1259394)

Now uses jQuery to compute the position of the help box. Combining
.position() and .offset() means that relatively positioned elements
in the help box's ancestry don't affect its final position.

For very small screens, the help box now resizes to fit the screen.
For larger screens it's capped at 500px (rather than using percentage
widths as before) to avoid the width being dependent on parent
elements.

Title:
  Help links in forms are not keyboard-accessible

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently, users of screen readers can see help links (the blue icons
  in forms) and can activate them but cannot easily interact with the
  popup that appears since it's inserted into the HTML in a different
  place from the link.

  A possible way to do this is
  - Add tabindex="-1" to the popup title
  - Focus the title using JS when the popup is loaded
  - Lock keyboard focus to the popup while it is open using ARIA attributes

  Affects latest master
