Description

These ones: https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/blob/master/lms/djangoapps/grades/signals/signals.py

Moving these to openedx-events would allow us to remove an improper (openedx->lms) import:

openedx.core.djangoapps.xblock.runtime.runtime -> lms.djangoapps.grades.api

because then the xblock runtime would depend on the openedx-event grading signals rather than the LMS grading app.

Research direction

Start with lms/djangoapps/grades/signals/signals.py and trace the openedx.core.djangoapps.xblock.runtime.runtime to lms.djangoapps.grades.api dependency described in the issue. Determine how the grading signals should be represented in openedx-events and verify that the runtime no longer imports the LMS grading app while the signals remain available to their consumers.
