Public bug reported:

When the config variable '$cfg->validfiletypes' is set, only the file
types mentioned can be uploaded to Mahara. That impacts a number of
admin screens where we need to be able to upload CSV and MATRIX files in
particular:

- Add people by CSV
- Create groups by CSV
- Add group members by CSV
- Import SmartEvidence framework file
- Upload Leap2A file to create an account (and same for importing Leap2A into an existing account).

It would not necessarily be good to have to allow these file types in
general. Therefore, it would be good to always allow them on the screens
where they are needed to fulfil basic operations in Mahara.
