602918 - [Step 3] Construct the Describe Your Add-on page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

Current URL: Somewhere under https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/submit 
New URL: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/submit/3 (we're
making unique URLs now) 
Mockup: http://people.mozilla.com/~chowse/drop/amo/devtools/v2/Submit_03_Describe.png

The add-on edit page is pretty close to done (eg. https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/z/en-US/developers/addon/5326/edit) so hopefully we can reuse a decent chunk of that code here.  This is a pretty basic form, only oddity is that you need to say "on step 4" in the database on successful submission.  Some notes:

- The "add-on's detail page" part is generated automatically/on-the-fly from the name using a slug function. (verify it's a slug on the backend too)
- Add-ons only get 1 slug, not 1-per-language
- field limits are available in the db (eg. summary = 255)
- max of 2 categories is enforced on front and backend
- if they choose "My add-on doesn't fit..." it unchecks all other categories, and vice versa

We can remove the intro paragraph copy from this step.

Also adding to what Wil said, when "my add-on doesn't fit" is selected we select the "Other" category appropriate for that application. Each application's Other category has a different id, and there's a map of these in the current code. Also, when this is selected, the other categories should not only be unchecked but disabled.
