Disable Persona/browserid auth if not in use (Bug 1541173)

Because Persona is going to be decommissioned by Mozilla in
November 2016, we want to discourage new sites from using it.
An easy way to do that, is to disable it for newly installed
sites, or when upgrading sites where it is not yet in use.

Title:
  Disable Persona authentication

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This was discussed in the 50th developer meeting:
  http://meetbot.mahara.org/mahara-dev/2016/mahara-
  dev.2016-02-02-07.34.log.html#l-350

  We decided to disable Persona authentication on new instances and
  provide admins with a warning / pop-up / modal when they click the
  "Show" button to let them know that Mozilla is going to end the
  support at the end of November 2016.

  For any instances upgrading to Mahara 16.04, we will check if Persona
  authentication has been used. If no institution used it, Persona
  authentication will be disabled. If a site admin tries to enable it
  again, they would get the above message.

  Deprecation of Persona auth itself is handled on bug #1533377.
