Title:
  Course completion block to show external data about course completions

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The creation of a blocktype 'courseinfo' that will display information
  from an external source relating to course completion.

  The information will be fetched via webservices where an external
  function/token will return information about a user based on the
  following criteria:

  1) The owner of the block (ie the owner of the page) will match up by username to the external system
  2) The external userid for the owner will then be recorded in the blocks configdata
  3) When anyone views the page once the userid is recorded the block will fetch the external course completion data and display it
  the data will consist of a json encoded packet that contains:
  - name             The title of course
  - completiondate   When course was completed
  - courselength     The amount of hours the course was
  - coursetype       What type of course it was
  - courseid         The id of the course in the external system
  4) The data will show in the block paginated and with a courselength grand total
