Description

Now Moodle full name input form order is "Firstname >> Lastname".
But some non-English languages as Japanese need the order "Lastname >> Firstname" for input form.

I suggest adding "Full Name Input Order" setting on Administration >> Security >> Site policies.

I checked this improvement works fine.
Please see "moodle_fullname_order.patch" for more detail.

This proposed patch is very important for avoding name mis-registration of learners in Japan and countries where they use familyname-first order.
And this will finally erase the last several percentages of remaining confusing points of Moodle for them!
