[Credentials/Badges] Multi-select, not just single choice, option in Custom Badge Properties

[mnlamberson]

Problem statement:

I am a very big fan of custom badge properties in Canvas Credentials/Badgr Pro. It would be nice to have an expanded set of input types for the custom properties - particularly multi-select in addition to single select. We're looking at a standard metadata template for our credentials that captures key elements of standard fields that describe a credential. For example, we have a field called " Credential Purpose" and want to provide the options: Indicate which purpose(s) apply __ skills acquisition __ disciplinary or interdisciplinary knowledge enhancement __ career progression __ professional development __ Other (explain) Currently, we have to use Rich text and rely upon the use of markdown.

Proposed solution:

Add an additional input type called multi-select to the list of options in custom badge properties.
