[sakai2-tcc] Captcha support 2.8 for new accounts

If the code is in Alpha 2, I will volunteer to test it. 

The biggest risk for Sakai 2.X is that we don't evolve the product fast enough. That is why I am happy with profile2, sitestates, BasicLTI and feature changes. Change does'nt make QA's life easy, but thats not the point.

1. Are we sure all the code provided won't be used at all by default?
2. Who in QA will test it? Is all else covered?
3. Time will run out quickly, as far as I can remember from previous
releases and their quality.
4. I know lots of things have been expected for a long time but this is
not a criterion for me in the case of a late merge.

Is more than one person in one institution outside the MT gonna support
this for at least one year?

I have no problems giving time to get votes contradicting me. Maybe I'm
playing it too safe.

Cheers,

J-F
