TICKET-637: Set course dates from term on LTI course creation

[Naragod]

Proposed Changes - ✨ New feature

Courses created through the Canvas LTI flow now start with term dates filled in. Before this change, instructors set both dates by hand after every course creation.

• LtiConfig.get_course_dates turns the term into a four-month window. "Fall 2025" becomes Sep 1 to Dec 31, 2025.
• The SIS ID term code (LSM999Y1-Y-LEC0101-20259) wins over the term name when both are present.
• Canvas sends the term name through a new term_name custom claim.
• When no term can be parsed, both dates stay unset and instructors set them as before.
• Adapter files without get_course_dates keep working through a respond_to? guard.

Looks good! Please update branch and I will approve. Thank you.

@Naragod and @david-yz-liu, I noticed that when a course is created via LTI with the term "2026 Fall-Winter", MarkUs sets the course dates to Sept 1 – Dec 31. The same happens for full-year (Y) courses, e.g. LSM999Y1-Y-LEC0101-20269 in the SIS ID. Shouldn't these span Sept 1 – Apr 30? Or does a MarkUs course only cover a single term?

@donny-wong you're right, for year-long courses it should go Sept 1 - April 30
