Assessment groups improvements

[damianhxy]

Description

1. Add missing breadcrumbs for groups (index, new, show)
2. Replace links with path helpers where possible
3. Remove deadcode re: @grouplessCUDs which is never shown on show or new pages
4. For convenience, don't add instructor/CA to group when they create one (if self-assignment is disabled)
5. Groups clear their members upon destruction
6. Allow (only) instructors to boot students, i.e. even if they're already confirmed
7. Disband groups if the only members left are those that require group confirmation
8. UX improvements
   • Don't show "haven't confirmed group membership" message to instructors
   • Show names in addition to emails
   • Helper text to inform students when group is at max size or student assignment is not allowed
   • Flash when disbanding groups
   • Hide inapplicable UI elements (e.g. when student assignment is not allowed)
   • Improve explanation of behavior
9. Allow students to leave group while waiting for group approval (this is the one that resolves #2115)
10. Allow members to "add themselves" - essentially no effect for students, but useful for instructors who might want to add themselves to groups

Motivation and Context

Closes #2115

How Has This Been Tested?

Create assessment with group size 3 and student self-assignment enabled

• As student1, create a group with student2
• As student3, request to join the group
• (important) student3 can choose to leave the group
• As student1, cancel invite to student2 and then leave the group. Group will be disbanded.
• Verify that student3 is now without a group
• As student1, create a new group with student2
• As instructor, kick student1 - group not disbanded
• As instructor, kick student2 - group disbanded

Create assessment with group size 3 and student self-assignment disabled

• As student1, see message that you can't create or join groups
• As instructor, create group with student1- observe that student1 is automatically confirmed and instructor is not added
• As instructor, add yourself to the group successfully. Then kick yourself.
• As student1 view group and see message that you can't add members to the group.

In general, test that behavior makes sense.

Tips

### Chat There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit: - Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example: - `I pushed a fix in commit .` - `Generate unit-tests for this file.` - `Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.` - Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag `@coderabbitai` in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples: - `@coderabbitai generate unit tests for this file.` - `@coderabbitai modularize this function.` - PR comments: Tag `@coderabbitai` in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples: - `@coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.` - `@coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.` - `@coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit tests.` - `@coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.` Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments. ### CodeRabbit Commands (invoked as PR comments) - `@coderabbitai pause` to pause the reviews on a PR. - `@coderabbitai resume` to resume the paused reviews. - `@coderabbitai review` to trigger a review. This is useful when automatic reviews are disabled for the repository. - `@coderabbitai resolve` resolve all the CodeRabbit review comments. - `@coderabbitai help` to get help. Additionally, you can add `@coderabbitai ignore` anywhere in the PR description to prevent this PR from being reviewed. ### CodeRabbit Configration File (`.coderabbit.yaml`) - You can programmatically configure CodeRabbit by adding a `.coderabbit.yaml` file to the root of your repository. - The JSON schema for the configuration file is available [here](https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/coderabbit-overrides.v2.json). - If your editor has YAML language server enabled, you can add the path at the top of this file to enable auto-completion and validation: `# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/coderabbit-overrides.v2.json` ### CodeRabbit Discord Community Join our [Discord Community](https://discord.com/invite/GsXnASn26c) to get help, request features, and share feedback.

Also self-assign groups is checked by default when creating a new assessment, only way to uncheck it is to do so in assessment settings. I think maybe it would be better to let instructors check/uncheck it before/while creating an assessment too?

Done:

I also took the liberty of fixing the breadcrumbs for the creation page
