Resolves: #268
Description
This PR adds platform-level glob scopes so role assignments can target all resources of a type across the entire platform, not just within a single organization or specific scope.
Problem
Org-level globs (
course-v1:OpenedX+*,lib:DemoX:*) grant access within one org. Some use cases need platform-wide coverage (e.g., a role on all courses everywhere) without assigning per-org globs.Solution
PlatformGlobDataandPlatformCourseOverviewGlobDatafor thecourse-v1:*pattern (all courses on the platform).ScopeMeta:org_glob_registry: org-wide patterns (renamed fromglob_registry)platform_glob_registry: platform-wide patternsIS_ORG_GLOB/IS_PLATFORM_GLOBflags whereIS_GLOBis derived from both.Additional changes
