This is the final change required for Django 2.0 support. Instead of using
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES use MIDDLEWARE setting. Support for new style middleware was
provided in version 0.3.0, so depend on that version. Django built-in middleware
already supports new style and plinth middleware will now support new style.
The actual semantics of the middleware don't need changes. See:

- use a migration to merge the old 'firstboot_state' and 'setup_state'
fields into 'firstboot_completed' which is a more accurate name
- introduce kvstore.delete()
- Fix major regression so that steps can submitted multiple times in
case of errors.
- Don't serve the welcome page (and other pages) only once. Show it
until action is an taken. This does not apply to the final step.
- Eliminate all coupling of one first boot step on another.
- Move first boot helper methods to __init__.py instead of middleware as
it is more generic than middleware.
- Implement caching the first boot state to avoid an SQL query on every
page load. The down side is that if first boot state is modified in
the backend DB outside Plinth, Plinth will need to be restarted to
catch the modified value.
- Mark some methods as private.
- Refactor middleware code for slightly more simplicity.
- Don't show sidebar in pagekite first boot step. Set width like other
pages.
- Remove dependency on withsqlite and use Django models.
This avoids depending on a module that is not available in PyPi.
Withsqlite does not have Python3 support. It does not work when
we choose a different database backend. Atleast partly duplicates
what Django models are meant for.
- Check and update database schema on every run so that
newly added modules can add tables and old ones can update.
