Updating calendar pieform element to use datepicker/timepicker

(Bug #1267239)

The datepicker is now keyboard accessible but not fully screenreader
accessible - but the folks at datepicker are working on that

The key bindings you need to know for datepicker:
PAGE UP: Move to the previous month.
PAGE DOWN: Move to the next month.
CTRL+PAGE UP: Move to the previous year.
CTRL+PAGE DOWN: Move to the next year.
CTRL+HOME: Move to the current month. Open the datepicker if closed.
CTRL+LEFT: Move to the previous day.
CTRL+RIGHT: Move to the next day.
CTRL+UP: Move to the previous week.
CTRL+DOWN: Move the next week.
ENTER: Select the focused date.
ESC: Close the datepicker

The key bindings added for timepicker:
(to avoid clashes with existing key bindings)
ALT+UP: Move hour slider up one step
ALT+DOWN: Move hour slider down one step
SHIFT+LEFT: Move minute slider down one step
SHIFT+RIGHT: Move minute slider up one step

Also added the prev/next year button options

Title:
  Replace jscalendar with JQuery UI calendar

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently the DHTML date picker widget (for example the date field on
  /artefact/plans/edit/task.php) is not easy to navigate using a
  keyboard since it opens below all other elements and does not have
  focus set to it - this is confusing for screen reader users since
  activating the button appears to do nothing.

  The current date picker could be modified to be made accessible, or it
  could be replaced with another library (such as a variant of jQuery UI
  datepicker)

  Note that screen readers users can still enter dates manually so this
  is not essential for WCAG compliance.

  Affects latest master (using Orca 3.4.2)
