accesslib: has_capability() now supports fake $USER for forum cron
has_capability() can handle the fake user that forum cron sets up
and will load the appropriate accessdata into $USER->access.
This makes forum cron work again. A test comparison between before
this patchseries yields:
With 1 forum post, sent total 24 times
- Before 11 000 DB queries (approx)
- After 506 DB queries
With 6 forum posts, sent a total of 452 times
- Before 47 876 DB queries
- After 8 256 DB queries
There is a very high variability, but we are going from 100-500
queries per sent email to 18-21 queries per sent email. The
variability probably stems from 2 of the 6 posts being in a 200-user
forum.
Still huge - by the time we are sending the email, we should know
everything we need to know about the user, the forum/thread/post and
the form. The average should be well below 1 DB query per email sent!
