Tool Search: Add Course Master

A Course Master defines course elements of courses from a district level, so all schools are using the same number and naming convention for courses, as well as the same setup for grading. Course Catalogs need to be created first before creating Course Masters. A Course Catalog is a collection of Course Masters that is then attached to the school. Changes made to the Course Master are also applied to the courses at the schools if fields have been locked.
