Title: NORMALIZE_FILENAME setting

I added a new setting to django-filebrowser: NORMALIZE_FILENAME.

It can be used together or separately from CONVERT_FILENAME - and does not conflict with it in any way.

Basically the idea is to remove (or if possible substitute) all funky characters in the filenames. Characters such as accents (àâêä) and non-alphanumeric characters (*&^%). Users should remember to rename the files before uploading them, from my experience however they often do not think about that at all.

The filtering is loosely based on 'slugify' from django.
