      Description

      Currently, if an opening date/time is configured for a Choice module, students are unable to view the activity before that time and get a message telling them when it will be available.

      This patch add a config option to enable teachers to allow the students to preview the available Choice options (without being able to submit) when the activity is not yet open.
