      The aim of this issue is to improve and simplify the process of creating an LTI external tool activity in a course for teachers. Teachers should be able to create an activity with minimal configuration once there are preconfigured tools available in the course.

      Prototype: https://www.figma.com/proto/zmMi4keFIMvlQwIrUlwuLM/LTI?page-id=102%3A8&type=design&node-id=1763-3035&viewport=3574%2C-290%2C0.13&t=wc6m6CAWgBHtMbVu-1&scaling=scale-down&starting-point-node-id=1763%3A3035&show-proto-sidebar=1

      Acceptance criteria:

      • The "Select content" form elements should only be present if the tool supports that feature.
      • The "Select content" form element should be a required field if it's present.
      • The "Display activity name..." and "Display activity description..." fields should only be shown if the tool config "Launch container" is set to embedded-type containers (embed or embed without blocks)
