Problem/Motivation

Files linked to in the REST API are served from a (generally shared, not just REST) endpoint, that requires authentication using the same tokens but different parameter names as the REST endpoint. (NB it also requires the core_files_get_files permission).

Specific use case, add the ability to download files attached to courses in the course migration.

Proposed resolution & Tasks

Implement a method for accessing the files on the Moodle Service.
Add a process plugin for migrations.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

New method: MoodleRest::requestFile() and new migrate plugin moodle_file

Data model changes

None. Just document how to add field to courses, and give an example of the migration.
