Add notification emails for Tests & Quizzes when they become available

Fixed

Description

At the University Of Dayton, we’ve created notification emails that send when a Samigo test becomes available, to replace the existing ones that send when it’s published. We thought this would be much more useful for students, as the new emails make reference to an immediately actionable item rather than a test that now exists but can’t yet be taken. We would like to share it with the community, and we’ll have a commit soon.
This will also come with a user-configurable preference that can disable the notifications if desired.

I think this needs to be reverted from Sakai 23.x. This feature has some severe problems and patching those problems is much difficult than expected.

Does this code also seem to notify even if the instructor explicitly chooses no notification?

Tested on 23x: https://qa23-mysql8.nightly.sakaiproject.org/, build: 323a7a99

This is not working as expected. It doesn’t matter what the student sets in Preferences regarding notifications when assessments become available. What determines if they receive a notification seems to be if the instructor selects to notify the students when the quiz is published.

Should this Jira be reopened or a new Jira created?
