[Building Sakai] Entity broker interface to Forums

[Aaron Zeckoski]

There is no tool or context without the portal and the REST/webservice
calls don't have the portal so it's not really possible without faking
it. I would suggest the code is changed to only do the operations that
require the context/tool if it is available.
