Bug description:
  LTI sometimes sends parameters through that Mahara doesn't require.
  Rather than whitelisting them as suggested in bug #1785542. We
  reviewed things again and there don't seem to be any security concerns
  after all that we would need to take into consideration.

  So we'll drop / ignore any parameters that Mahara doesn't need like we
  do for parameters that start with "custom". That means that when they
  are ignored, a site admin should see a message on the screen when not
  in production mode to that effect so they know what has been ignored.
