    Description

      This is the moodle core component of MOBILE-3432.

      We will add a new setting to the Site administration > Mobile app > Mobile features admin screen. This setting will take the form of an autocomplete element, which allows a list of file MIME types to be set, for sending to the app. (I'm not sure if there is already an admin_setting subclass for an autocomplete field? If not this might need to be created along similar lines to MoodleQuickForm_autocomplete).

      The source of file types that can be searched for in the autocomplete field will be the list returned by core_filetypes::get_types(), so admins can search for filetypes by extension, mime type or name. This means the searchable list will default to the types defined core_filetypes::get_default_types(), and additional types can be defined using tool_filetypes.
