This resolves #48

Whole forum grading is added as a separate plugin from forum, so the administrator can enable or disable them separately. Whole forum grading uses a separate permission capability from rating as well, so some teachers should not be able to see both options. Whole forum grading uses the same icon as forum ratings, but the grade items will have different names unless the administrator has changed the language strings related to the forum mod. The grading links lead directly to the module page, because as far as I can tell there is no way to hyperlink directly to the grading overlay let alone to a particular user.

Whole forum grading created as a separate plugin, so it can be enabled separately from forum ratings. Some roles may be able to rate and not apply whole forum grades, and vice versa.
Whole forum grading does not have the same language strings as standalone mods, so some variation is needed.
block_grade_me_tree(): module link, module icon, and submission link
block_grade_me_cache_grade_data(): add itemnumber to query, use to identify whole forum grade items

As a note, this was also tested with Moodle 4.0 and works for that release as well.

@logan-reynolds, we would love to see this functionality integrated into the core block

@logan-reynolds, echo'ing the comments of others. 95% of our instructors use whole forum grading over ratings. This would instantly make the block much more useful for us. We're paying a maintenance fee for our host (OpenLMS) to support the plugin but will re-evaluate if it's not actually saving instructors time.
