Widgets and admin mixin to display remaining characters in django admin.

# Django CharsLeft Widgets & Admin Mixin

Inspired from [django-charsleft-widget](https://github.com/timmyomahony/django-charsleft-widget/)
by [Timmy O'Mahony](https://github.com/timmyomahony)
and [django-charsleft-widget](https://github.com/bashu/django-charsleft-widget)
by [Basil Shubin](https://github.com/bashu)


*django-admin-charsleft* provides a simple way to add information to django's admin interface about the remaining
characters for both `CharField` and `TextField` inputs, relying on the `max_length` attribute.

*django-admin-charsleft* - as the name implies - is intended for the use inside [django-admin](), whereas the original
projects provide more generic widgets.

It plays nice with the default django-admin (>=1.9) - and also seamlessly integrates
with [django-slick-admin](https://github.com/palmbeach-interactive/django-slick-admin).
