Long Menu Question: Identical Scoring

1 Initial Problem

Currenlty a question of type 'Long Menu' has no option to configure the behaviour regarding the scoring of identical terms used for different gaps. A distinct term could be used in different gaps.

2 Conceptual Summary

According to questions of type 'Cloze Question' the behaviour should be configurable in the editing form of the 'Long Menu' question. If activated, the same term for different gaps will result in added points during the scoring process. If the option is not activated a distinct term will only be valid for exactlyy one single gap. The default state for new questions will be 'deactivated'. The state for all existing questions (created in ILIAS prior to v. 5.4.x) will be set to 'activated' via an additional database update step.
