      Detected a case when testing MDL-23887, it seems that there are a few cases where the PATH element in the install.xml files does not match the real path of the file. Surely because of copy/paste operations or moved subplugin types or whatever.

      That PATH is never checked (and right now only used to generate savepoints php code within the editor), so it should be correct, so better we start checking it ASAP.

      This issue is about :

      • Fix wrong cases (stables & master).
      • Implement a check in the xmldb stuff in order to avoid this in the future (master only).
      • Warn about the new check (upgrade.php / devs ..) so people knows about if for master.

      Ciao
