Title:
  Have the cron and/or upgrade site only run if they are accompanied
  with secret in url

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Set up a basic secret in config.php like $cfg->urlsecret =
  'bunnyslippers';

  So that if a user hits /admin/upgrade.php or /lib/cron.php they need
  to add the ?secret=bunnyslippers to the end of the url or it won't
  run.

  This will stop random people hitting those urls and causing potential
  problems during db upgrade / normal cron runs
