Changes in Moodle API
- MDL-18066: The import_backup_file_silently() has been modified, so it doesn't provide automatic administrator credentials anymore. The (custom) caller functions have the responsibility of doing that. This change only affects to 3rd party code using the function, core doesn't use it at all.
