Revised r9566 slightly to be backwards compatible with versions 1.0 - 1.0.2.

Also documented the change. We prefer to load directory_index.html for static
directory listings, but if you have the (older style) "directory_index"
template and no .html version, we'll load that. This should stop a bunch of
mysterious breakages when people upgrade to Django 1.0.3 or Django 1.1. Also
keeps the docs in sync with released code.

Fixed #9993.

.. versionchanged:: 1.0.3
Prior to Django 1.0.3, there was a bug in the view that provided directory
listings. The template that was loaded had to be called
``static/directory_listing`` (with no ``.html`` extension). For backwards
compatibility with earlier versions, Django will still load templates with
the older (no extension) name, but it will prefer a the
``directory_index.html`` version.
