#' Feedback graph
#'
#' This function defines a feedback page for an adaptive test
#' created with psychTestRCAT,
#' plotting the participant's results against the results of previous participants.
#'
#' Each time that this page is seen by a participant,
#' the participant's score is written to a text file in psychTestR's
#' output directory.
#' This text file is used to build the population distribution for
#' the feedback graph, once sufficiently many people have taken the test.
#'
#' @param test_label (Character scalar)
#' Identifying label for the test (e.g. 'mdt'),
#' used to identify the file where participant results are accumulated.
#'
#' @param text_finish (Character scalar)
#' Text to display to the participant, defaults to "You finished the test!".
#'
#' @param text_score (Character scalar)
#' Text to prefix to the participant's score,
#' defaults to "Your final score:".
#'
#' @param text_rank (Character scalar)
#' Text to prefix to the participant's rank,
#' defaults to "Your rank compared to previous participants:".
#'
#' @param x_axis (Character scalar)
#' Label for the x-axis, corresponding to participant scores;
#' defaults to "Score".
#'
#' @param y_axis (Character scalar)
#' Label for the y-axis, corresponding to the count of participant scores;
#' defaults to "Count".
#'
#' @param next_button
#' (NULL or a character scalar or an object of class "shiny.tag")
#' If NULL, no next button is shown
#' (typically because the test has completed).
#' Otherwise, a button to progress to the next page is created,
#' displaying the content of this argument.
#'
#' @param digits (Integerish scalar)
#' Number of digits to which participant scores should be rounded.
#'
#' @param explain_IRT (Logical scalar)
#' If TRUE, the feedback page includes an academic explanation of
#' item response theory.
#' Currently only English language is supported.
#'
#' @param i18n (Logical scalar)
#' Whether internationalisation should be enabled.
#' Defaults to \code{FALSE} to preserve back-compatibility.
#'
#' @param dict
#' Internationalisation dictionary (see \code{\link[psychTestR]{i18n_dict}}).
#'
#' @return
#' A test element (or, if \code{i18n} is TRUE, a timeline segment)
#' suitable for inclusion in a psychTestR timeline
#' directly after \code{\link{adapt_test}}.
