Better Diagnostics when browser access is denied. #2

Description

@bredd

The test delivery system enforces use of a secure browser and a blacklists certain applications from running on the student's machine while taking a test. When access is denied, such as when the secure browser is running on a virtual machine, it's hard to find what setting should be changed to permit access if it should have been authorized.

When access is denied, the denial should be logged by the server in an easy-to-discover location. Simultaneously the detail should also be reported to the browser. In both cases, the information should include the user agent string, the application name, or other details needed to properly whitelist the browser, the operating system, or the application.
