Title:
  Update reCaptcha library to API version 2

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Google introduced reCaptcha API version 2.0 in December 2014. While
  they haven't announced a deprecation date for reCaptcha version 1 yet,
  we should upgrade our system anyway, because the version 2 is a better
  user experience and more secure.

  See https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/intro

  Google's github repository has a reCaptcha 2 PHP library, so we should
  use that: https://github.com/google/recaptcha

  If possible, we should do this in such a way that the usage of
  Mahara's "captcha" Pieform element
  (htdocs/lib/form/elements/captcha.php) doesn't change, nor do any of
  the site configuration elements.
