Add bulk update feature for Event "Attended?" checkbox GH3706
Like we do for email, download, and print, add a Bulk Update Attended All|Selected button that checks or unchecks the Attended? box for all roster records or just the ones selected. When clicked, ask the user if they want to check or uncheck the Attended? box. This will make record-keeping easier for those who choose to use printed sign-in sheets.
When you use the "Add volunteer hours" box at the bottom of an event roster, it adds hours to anyone with a volunteer role, not just the folks who were marked as attended. It would be great to get this updated so that hours were only attributed to volunteers who attended. This will be even better if we can enable bulk updating of attendees on event rosters.
We need to make sure these two bulk updates work together.

This was completed as part of the website 4.5 upgrade in February 2024. https://www.mountaineers.org/blog/tech-update-4-5-bulk-roster-updates-practice-sessions-site-search-and-more.
Thank you for your patience and feedback.

The logic for combined bulk "attended" and "volunteer hours" functions for each selected record should be:
- If BulkAttended=True, Check the "Attended?" box
- If BulkAttended=True AND Role=EventContact, Volunteer, Set "Volunteer Hours" to BulkVolunteerHours
- If BulkAttended=False, Uncheck "Attended?" box
- If BulkAttended=False AND Role=EventContact, Volunteer, Set "Volunteer Hours" to zero -
