Description

In the course backup import method, there doesn't seem to be a CSRF protection, which also means that a simple refresh of the page re-executes the import.
This is an issue, in particular in distributed clusters, as the cluster itself might decide, if the operation takes too long, to ask another back-end, and in this case you end up with as many import as the number of back-ends.

Please add CSRF validation to course export, course import and course copy.

Julio, I think this shouldn't take you too long and it's going to be complicated to assign to anyone else.
This requires changes to the formValidator in the backups to use the Security class and add a token
