Update 1.6.1

• Now use Moodle lock API. No more badly namespaced, old and custom semaphors. smile
• Binary execution files are now correctly handled (displayed, but not editable).
• Tested on Moodle 4.1.

Update 1.6.0

• Verified compatibility with VPL 3.4 to 4.1.
• The CURL execution for evaluation now matches more standards for execution servers, and should be more robust.
• The terminal is no longer draggable (sorry for those who were having fun with this "feature").
• [Bugfix] Changing the template VPL and switching back to the previous one lead to an error, which is now fixed.
