Some options for what's shown on the results page

[christianp]

Particularly, David Wishart wants the option not to show the questions and advice on the printed version of the results page (they're hidden in the screen stylesheet).

There could be options to show/hide each of the other sections: student info, score breakdown, timing.

I'd be up for giving this a go, have just set up the local instance so I'll have a toy around if no-one else has started.

Thanks! Let me know if you get stuck.

There are two halves to this:

• Add the option to the Numbas editor for exam authors.
• Make the Numbas compiler (this repository) load the option, and act on it when displaying the results.

In the Numbas editor, you'll need to add some settings to the Exam object, and make sure they get saved and loaded.

• In editor/exam/edit.js, add an object this.results_options = {showquestions: ko.observable(true), showadvice: ko.observable(true)}
• Make sure those options are loaded and saved by the Exam.load and Exam.toJSON methods
• Add the options to the exam editor template, inside the Feedback tab.

Then, in this repo:

• In exam.py, load the options in Exam.fromDATA and produce some corresponding XML in Exam.toxml (yes, it's a bit redundant to have to translate JSON to XML, but there are historical reasons)
• In runtime/scripts/exam.js, load the options from the XML.
• Finally, in the default theme, you'll have to do something to question.html and the print stylesheet to only show questions or advice if the corresponding settings are turned on.

Implemented, thanks to @stuwilmur!
