Title:
  Missing directories in <sitedata>/sessions makes login fail

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Committed
Status in Mahara 17.10 series:
  Fix Released
Status in Mahara 18.04 series:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  In <sitedata>/sessions there should be directories named 0,1,2,..9,a,b..,f
  There should always be all of them present, if they are not there we create them. 
  When we check the sessions dir, we assume there could be only two possibilities: We have all of them or we have none. That's why we only check for the first one (0). 
  In the case where some of these directories are missing, but the 0 is present, we will see the following error when we try to login:

  "Mahara: Site unavailable
  Something in the way you're interacting with Mahara is causing an error.
  Details if any, follow:

  Logged out user can not be stored in usr_session"
