    Fix overzealous caching of static media.
    
    When upgrading a Review Board site, the static media references would
    often be pointing to the wrong places. This was because Django cached
    the resulting media files in memcached, which is definitely not what we
    want. However, it will first try a "staticfiles" backend, which we can
    dynamically add and point to local memory instead.
    
    We do this after we've loaded the rest of the settings, ensuring we
    have settings.CACHES set up.
    Tested locally and it seemed to work. We'll know more when we deploy next.
