Title: Make django settings injection optional

I understand that settings injection is necessary so using vanilla django on Heroku would be possible, but I think there should be an "I know what I'm doing switch" to make it optional.

For example, I opted to put the DATABASE_URL mechanism in my settings file explicitly so it will be least astonishing and easily customizable (for example, I added a sqlite:// url that can be used in unit tests).
