Course credit

     * This module has moved to its own project.
     * Course credit will allow an admin to assign and map credit
       types to learner profiles and courses. Learners will then be able
       to receive or claim credit that they are eligible for on completion
       of a course.
     * Credit can appear in a completed activities view and is exposed to
       Token for use in a module like Certificate.
     * Course credit also includes course_restrict_credit, which restricts
       claiming credit to only one of many similar courses.

       individual (object-level) reports.
