Bulk add candidates: ability to see/add/amend Additional Name(s) inline about yournextrepresentative HOT 4 CLOSED

This would speed up the adding of candidates at the end of this week, so I think this is a good contender for work this week.

from yournextrepresentative.

To add an example to this, on a page like: /bulk_adding/nia.2017-03-02/osni_oid:NIE-18/:

The existing candidates listed there just have an edit button beside them, and going through that "Edit" to add the variant of the name which is on the ballot paper (which often have more middle names, etc.) is badly distrupting the flow of adding data from nomination papers.

Perhaps the simplest way to deal with this would be to:

• list under each existing candidate name any existing alternative names they have and
• adding a button to add an alternative name, which when clicked unhides an entry box for an additional name
• that box can submit the addition of the alternate name by posting with AJAX to the existing PersonOtherNameCreateView
