-----------------------------+--------------------
This simply moves the logic for setting `is_bound`, `data` and `files`
into a method which enables setting the data after form initialization.
This is a backwards compatible. This makes it easier to not have to
initialize a form twice in view. It changes from this idiom:
{{{#!python
def view(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = Form(request.POST, request.FILES)
...
else:
form = Form()
...
}}}
to simply this:
{{{#!python
def view(request):
form = Form()
if request.method == 'POST':
form.set_data(request.POST, request.FILES)
...
}}}
This reduces clutter and redundancy when there are a lot of form arguments
passed.
