Filter displayed videos according to teacher capabilities

A user should be displayed all series of courses, where he has the capability to view the respective series. Therefore, we need a new capability for access to opencast videos. We then query the events of all course series for which the user has the capability.
I would suggest to give this capability only to teachers, since managers could be overwhelmed by the amount of series displayed to them.
The series could then be displayed as folders having the name of the series.

This approach is not valid! It could be easily possible to allow a teacher to choose from the series of all courses he is a teacher in. However, this would not change the permissions of students to access the video. In our last VC, we decided to add a functionality to the block, which allows to copy videos from other series to the series of this course. This way, the copied series can be equipped with the respective permissions for this course.

This has to be solved in the block. No need of changes in here: Opencast-Moodle/moodle-block_opencast#13
