Migration from django 1.6 to django 1.9

- upgraded django-taggit to 0.18 from 0.12.2
- added fields attribute in django forms, mandatory in django 1.9
- get_profile attribute of User object deprecated, used hasattr instead.
- Template settings changed in django 1.9, all template related settings
  at one place.
- Support for string view arguments to url() is deprecated, so passed
  callable views instead.
- django.conf.urls.patterns() is deprecated, updated urlpatterns to a list of
  django.conf.urls.url() instances instead.
- django.utils.unittest is deprecated, used unittest instead.
- made changes in requirements and setup files

other
- added quiz prerequisite required as false in forms, so that the quiz
  is added without any prerequisite.
- Time zone settings not implemented.
