Title: Invoke super from UpdateModelMixin.pre_save

Thanks for the awesome library. It makes writing APIs a pleasure, and possible to do with hardly any code.

This change allows a subclass of GenericAPIView to add its own pre_save logic which will affect CreateMixin, but once UpdateMixin is added it isn't called.

Since GenericAPIView has an empty implementation of pre_save, calling it on super should be safe.
