[Building Sakai] Student changed section now missing assignments

[Aaron Zeckoski, Unicon]

It would be a lot easier to just go in and find the assignment
submissions for the user by id  (submitter_id) and old section id
(context) and just replace the old section id with new one. That
should effectively move the submissions.
