Public bug reported:

It's unlikely that the mahara.org mahara version will change very often,
and we are calling the function cron_check_for_updates constantly
(everytime we load a page, when loading a modal, etc) to see if the
mahara version has change.

Everytime this function is called when using the site (not by cron job),
it executes a mahara_http_request that will take a bit more than 2
seconds, making the mahara instance work slower than it should.

If this data doesn't change that often we can save this value in the
$SESSION variable so the mahara_http_request is not being called all the
time.
