Add a framework for generic views
This commit does not enable the new code, as such there
should be no change in functionality. In order to use the
new code the maps.py file should be updated to point at the
new views/models/sponsor.py module.

21. Specifying 'choices' for a field
Most fields take a ``choices`` parameter, which should be a tuple of tuples
specifying which are the valid values for that field.
For each field that has ``choices``, a model instance gets a
``get_fieldname_display()`` method, where ``fieldname`` is the name of the
field. This method returns the "human-readable" value of the field.
