Implementation details: * Anonymous users are assigned a unique ID (like `anon42c08f9996194e2a9339`) which gets stored in the django session. `block.scope_ids.user_id` and `block.runtime.anonymous_student_id` will both return this value. * User state for anonymous users is stored in the django cache and automatically expires as the cache gets pruned. Because user state is stored, anonymous users can use interactive blocks like capa problems. * There is no mechanism for upgrading to a registered account and keeping user state since the user state store for anonymous users (EphemeralKeyValueStore) is completely different than the one for registered users (DjangoKeyValueStore/"CSM"), and has no "list all keys" functionality. * "User State Summary" field values are shared among [recently active] anonymous users but are not shared with registered users. * Anonymous users can only access the `public_view` of XBlocks, not the regular `student_view`.
