Title:
  "$cfg->urlsecret = null;" doesn't work during installation

Bug description:
  According to config-defaults.php, if you set $CFG->urlsecret to null,
  you should be able to access the installer and upgrader without
  needing to add a urlsecret param to your URL. This is a useful feature
  for development environments.

  However, it currently doesn't work on the latest HEAD in master.

  To replicate:

  1. Add "$cfg->urlsecret = null;" to your config.php file
  2. Try to do a new install of Mahara through the web browser

  Expected result: Installation runs through
  Actual result: You get this message:

  Mahara: Invalid Parameter
  A required parameter is missing or malformed

  The 'urlsecret' parameter contains invalid characters
