[OH-Dev] [issue611] Use sqlite3 as default database during development

[Asheesh Laroia]

New submission from Asheesh Laroia <asheesh at asheesh.org>:

Right now, contributors to OpenHatch have to configure MySQL to get their local
site running.

I propose that we make sqlite3 the default database in the bundled settings.py
(and make MySQL still available as an option).

This has the following benefits:

* Contributors don't need to set up or install MySQL or python-mysqldb
* It is easy to take your OpenHatch setup between computers
* It is easy to run multiple separate OpenHatch setups on the same machine
because they no longer share access to the same database
