      Allow plugins to extend the 'defaulthomepage' configuration of a site, to provide additional options

      We require this for Workplace and will contribute necessary changes to Moodle, specifically so we can allow tenant sites to use custom pages (WP-4849) or learning catalogue (WP-4850) as the homepage

      We require MDL-81942 to land in addition, to ensure this setting applies to guest users too

      Approach

      Per this comment, after consultation with UX we will use "Option 1" (everything displayed in a single select element)

      1. We should consider how that configuration will be stored
      2. We should allow plugins to add multiple elements in their hook implementation (see also 1. above)
      3. We should also make the same select elements available in users preferred start page (where site configuration is set to allow)
      4. We should also allow plugin hook implementations to define whether they can also be selected from users preference page
