Description

This fixes the extension cache clearing and other compatibility issues
hit with newer versions of Django. We were using some private APIs in
earlier versions of Django, which have been replaced (largely by proper
APIs) in newer versions of Django.

The old template loader has been marked deprecated, and will be removed
in a future release. The loader will now show a warning when in use.
Documentation has been added to cover this.

Testing Done

Related unit tests pass on Django 1.6 and 1.8.

This should be a list comprehension.

It's concatenating lists, not building a list from items. A list comprehension could be written using itertools, but it'd be more complex than this (and would just do this under the hood anyway).

Change Summary:

Now uses the new base loader for templates, if available. The original one, which is supposed to be backwards-compatible, breaks on 1.8.

We should probably kill these headers when we see them (unless there's some specific copyright info for other people that needs to be preserved).
