21442	Configurable request parsing.	Tom Christie	Carlton Gibson	"This ticket if for implementing a request parsing API that ensures the `Request` objects can nicely handle JSON and other submitted types in addition the the existing multipart parsing.

The proposed API is based on this discussion: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/django-developers/request.DATA/django-developers/s8OZ9yNh-8c/oCbNL5x6avAJ

* `request.DATA` or `request.data` for accessing the parsed data.
* `request.parsers` or similar for modifying the parsers prior to parsing on a per-view basis.
* `request.accepted_parser` or similar for branching on media type if needed.
* A setting `REQUEST_PARSERS` or similar, that controls the default set of installed parsers.
