[Building Sakai] Inactivating User via SQL

[Matthew Jones]

The ability to lock/deactivate a user is only available in Sakai 10.

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-16499

You could either backport this patch (which adds a new column) or you could
use some other method of deactivating a user (such as adding a appending a
character to the users password which would lock their password, like how
linux adds !! to the front [1]). However if they are able to reset their
password they'd be able to get back in. So you'd have to remove that
ability.
