    Description

      With the current strucutre, plugins can't know which groups they've created unless they track the ids or idnumbers on their own tables.

      Having "component" and "itemid" for groups, just like MDL-31973 did for groups members, would make easier for integrations with external systems to distinguish groups they can update/delete from the ones from other plugins.

      It will help resolve MDL-58785, as there will be an easier way to found which groups were created by enrol_database.
