    Django's template rendering has changed a lot since Django 1.6, with the
    primary changes being the addition of other template backends and the
    removal of Context and RequestContext instances in favor of dict
    for most template rendering functions.

    We have compatibility functions in Djblets that do the right thing on
    the right version of Django. This change updates all our rendering calls
    to use these wrappers. This gives us compatibility with both 1.6 and
    1.11 right now, and will help us move fully onto Django 1.11 in the
    future.

    There are still a couple cases where we're passing a Context or
    RequestContext, which will eventually break as we move fully onto
    1.11, but those are more complex pathways that will need to be dealt
    with separately.

    Unit tests pass on Django 1.6 and 1.11 (with other in-progress changes).

    Browsed around Review Board, trying to trigger the various templates.
    Didn't see any regressions. More real-world testing will be needed.
