Django 1.4 compatibility

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Time to upgrade.

Issues
- Must run Grappelli against 2.4 branch - I'm sure they will release when this 
is ready
- Django_filters https://github.com/alex/django-filter uses XMLField which is 
removed. It's fixed in git but looks like the dev is MIA and won't be 
submitting a new pypi package.
- Filter specs are not longer supported. We use this in one place - work study 
time sheet filter. Will need to rewrite this using newer filter options 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.Mo
delAdmin.list_filter

Please add any issues if you want to run against 2.4. Compatibility with 2.3 
would make it easier to upgrade (develop for 2.4 but deploy 2.3 until grappelli 
2.4 is released)

Fixed filter spec thing. Breaks compatibility with 2.3 as it uses 
from django.contrib.admin.ListFilter

So now I'm running 2.4 and everything looks fine. We can upgrade next weekend 
everywhere. Need to decide what to do about django_filters so that installation 
is less hacky. Could script install script to get it from git or just include 
it in our repo.

Could use more testing. Marking Needs Verified.
