14937	US localflavor postal abbreviations	James Bennett	nobody	"Building on #9022 and the ongoing fallout from #8425, we really should provide a way to represent all abbreviations recognized by the US Postal Service without causing an international incident.

The attached patch does this by breaking down the choices into multiple fine-grained lists. It is backwards compatible in that its version of `STATE_CHOICES` contains all the choices present in the current `STATE_CHOICES`, but adds the following:

 * `STATE_CHOICES` now also contains Armed Forces ""state"" abbreviations.
 * A new tuple, `USPS_CHOICES`, contains all recognized USPS abbreviations, including independent nations which receive postal service from the United States.
 * A new model field (`USPostalCodeField`) and form field (`USPSSelect`) are added, taking advantage of the new `USPS_CHOICES` tuple.
 * Individual choice tuples are provided for: the ""lower 48"" states plus DC; all 50 states plus DC; all US territories; all US armed forces ""states""; independent nations serviced by USPS; and obsolete abbreviations formerly recognized by USPS (e.g., the Panama Canal Zone)."		closed	contrib.localflavor	1.2		fixed			Unreviewed	1
