Unattempted questions in submissions should be marked graded

Request to update existing auto-submission feature.

Current behaviour

When an assessment closes, the backend auto-submits all student submissions, and inserts empty answers for any questions that were not attempted by the student. These empty answers have the answer string set to // Question not answered by student.

However, these empty answers are not treated as :graded for the purposes of the grading_status field, as it is computed by comparing the number of questions in a submission to the number of manual gradings for that submission found in the database.

Ideal behaviour

All empty answers are treated as :graded and the grading overview of submissions on the frontend appropriately reflects wholly unattempted assessments as fully graded.

Yes, that would be great!
