      As per MDL-75122, we decided to:
      1. To remove the setting "lock on join" so it is not optional,
      2. And to hard-code the lockonjoin=true parameter on create when any of the lock settings is used.
       
      Background information:
      The issue turned out to be the user missing to check the "lock on join" box. When that happens, the lockonjoin value assumed by BBB will be whatever value the BBB server has by default, in this case false.

      This means that the locks are applied in the meeting but not to all the users on join. We (the integrators) are still not clear what is the intention for that in BBB, but for the purposes of the Moodle user experience, because the use case.
