Avoided rewrapping Contexts in render_to_response.
This change preserves backwards-compatibility for a very common misuse
of render_to_response which even occurred in the official documentation.
It fixes that misuse wherever it happened in the code base and docs.
Context.__init__ is documented as accepting a dict and nothing else.
Since Context is dict-like, Context(Context({})) could work to some
extent. However, things get complicated with RequestContext and that
gets in the way of refactoring the template engine. This is the real
rationale for this change.
