remove roles button in myMoodle blocks

      Description

      The block code currently shows the roles button for all non-pinned blocks, including those on the myMoodle page. But on myMoodle, you can't give any-one else permission to see the page or block instance, so I think roles are redundant. The icon is likely to confuse students who wouldn't normally see it.

      I think the fix is in blocks/moodleblock.class.php

      $onmymoodle = strpos( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], '/my/index.php' ) !== false ? true : false;
      if( !$onmymoodle & empty($this->instance->pinned)) {

      instead of just if( empty($this->instance->pinned)) {

      Unless you can find a more elegant solution?
