Foreign Key list_filter wthout custom FilterSpec

This is some (probably) pretty dodgy code that allows for foreign keys in the admin's list_filter without using a custom FilterSpec. It overrides the django.db.models.options.Options get_field class to handle spanned relationships, i.e. list_filter=('house__room__town',) as seen in http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/3400 I have only tested this with a double foreign key relationship('house__room'), and it worked. It hasn't been tested in production, and the troubling part of this code is probably to use of 'deepcopy'. I do add those copies back to the options instance, so there shouldn't be too much runaway copying.
