Change permissions of a class notebook

When a teacher leaves the school, or changes classes, it is common for the need to transfer one or more class notebooks from the old teacher to the new teacher. This script will allow the IT Admin to copy all of the Class Notebook contents of the old teacher's OneDrive over to the new teacher's OneDrive. The script will also re-trigger the provisioning and permissioning API's to ensure that the class notebook in the new location is properly set up, and all of the contents of the Collaboration Space, Content Library and Student Notebooks are properly set up. In addition, an email will be sent to all students in the class with a link to open the notebook in the new teacher's OneDrive location.
