Bug Description
We need to respect the language choice on the login screen
When you go to a page that can only be accessed when logged in it
takes you to the login screen (login box only screen).
When you have more than one language installed it displays a language
select form but if you pick a different language it reloads the page
again in the old language.
This patch allows it to remember what language was chosen and show the login box as the new language.
To replicate:
1. Install the Spanish language pack
2. Log out of Mahara
3. Go to /admin/
4. Because /admin/ is a non-public page, you will see the transient login screen
5. At the top of the transient login screen, you'll see the language-selection dropdown. Choose Spanish (Espanol) from the list and press the "Change" button
Expected result: The transient login screen reloads, in Spanish
Actual result: The transient login screen reloads, but the language is unchanged.

Marked as low as most people could work out it is a login box without needing to have it translated.
The fix just removes the confusion of choosing a language and nothing changes
