WIP: accessibility changes

[joelcollinsdc]

Starting to work on the accessibility issues described in #129. Some of these are likely to require discussion.

(I haven't tried these changes locally but...) It looks like a good start, thanks!

Pushed a commit (-f, hope that was OK) that tries to make the tabbed navigating look similar to mouse navigation. Tested in safari and chrome, firefox keyboard navigating confuses me.

Hey, is this ready to merge?

[joelcollinsdc]

I can get it in shape soon (today/tomorrow). There are a few changes needed like restyling headers after I reordered some H2s and 3's

Would it be a problem for me to merge in master to this for testing all the new changes? (This forked from cloud-deployment which doesn't appear to be merged into master yet...)
(there are actually a lot of conflicts, i'm hoping at least some/most are from the cloud_deployment stuff, maybe I should wait? The home page has changed considerably though, so I feel like catching up is necessary...)

I pushed some rudimentary changes to headings. Some headings needed to be changed from h2 <--> h3 and also I added headings to tab body's when the content of the tab was important. For the tabs... repeating the tab title in the tab pane does seem pretty duplicative but without a real header the document structure does seem pretty lacking. Some examples below... feedback encouraged.

I added some commits to support text alternatives for screen readers. I tried to add a description to the sponsorship analysis and added the screen reader plugin for highcharts.

I also added pending to the bill history table. I suppose technically it wasn't necessary since a user that is unable to see colors would be able to infer from the lack of a date that an event hasn't happened yet...

Merged, thanks! I merged master into the branch, as well as some other major changes like upgrading Django from 1.7 to 1.11. I'm taking this opportunity to get as many ducks in a row as possible.
