Store custom data on Order about django-salesman HOT 1 OPEN

Hi @Timusan, this is how I initially designed it. The basket and orders intentionally have the same "extra" concept of storing data so that it can be easily extended (and validated using the SALESMAN_EXTRA_VALIDATOR) without having to override the models.

The basket should store all data that will end up in the order, and vice versa. This makes it so that we can theoretically re-create baskets from orders as well.

I could introduce an additional method for assigning "extra" data during the populate_from_basket, which would make it easier to override for such cases.

As you've mentioned in the #30, adding SALESMAN_CHECKOUT_SERIALIZER option would make it easier to implement the case where you really don't want to use the "extra" dict -- and enable some other customisations. I would like to add that!
