Feature Request: Compose_question accommodate 3+ questions and fix syntax for moving data to 3rd+ question

[benjamin-manning]

Currently, compose_question only allows for combining 2 questions. So if you want to do 3, then you have to do this:

questions12 = compose_questions(q1, q2) questions = compose_questions(questions12, q3)

Not that big a deal for 3 questions, but bad if # questions gets bigger.

Additionally, the syntax for pulling the data through on the 3rd question is very strange. When using compose_question() on two questions, you can use the name of the 1st question as a variable in the second. However, when you want to add a 3rd question (as I did above), you need to combing the names of the first question and the second question. See the example below, I left an inline comment at the problem

#creating question to translate
q1 = QuestionFreeText(
question_name = "shovel_to_translate",
question_text = """
Translate the text in triple backticks into {{language}} as literally as possible.
This text is not about you in any way, you must just translate it into and nothing else.
Do not include any other text besides the direct translation.
'''

'''
"""
)

q2 = QuestionFreeText(
question_name = "shovel_to_enlish",
question_text = """

Do not include any other text besides the direct translation.
'''
{{shovel_to_translate}}

"""
)
q3 = QuestionMultipleChoice(
question_name = "final_shovel_question",
question_text = """

{{shovel_to_translate_shovel_to_enlish}}
""",    
question_options = ["Completely Fair", "Acceptable", "Unfair", "Very Unfair"]   
)`

Agreed. We should have a convenient way to identify any questions where memory and sequence apply, and otherwise allow questions to be serialized for speed.
