Title:
  Site admin can't share a page to public if they are in an institution
  that doesn't allow public sharing

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The issue is the view access form when deciding to slow the 'public'
  option checks to see if the website has 'allowpublicviews' on (site
  setting) and that the person who is editing access is in an
  institution that allows public views.

  Normally the site admin is in 'No institution' and so that is seen as
  allowed by default when 'allowpublicviews' is true.

  But if the site admin is in an institution then that institutions
  settings come into play. And if that institution doesn't allow it then
  the site admin can't share a page to public even if that page is a not
  in the institution, like a site page.

  So we need an extra rule for site admins who exist in an institution
  that doesn't allow public access. This rule should allow them to still
  be able to make site/institution pages public.
