Update 3.1.0 for Moodle 4.2+

This update addresses several issues:

  • Compatibility with VPL version 4.3.X. The issue was code not being properly highlighted. If the issue persists, try and save a new version of your question (not changing anything, just edit and save) and it should solve the problem.
  • Websocket header check was incorrect (case sensitivity).
  • Move out of jQueryUI (still included for underlying VPL dependencies).
