Rearrange the ambassadors page and implement the "main contact" role

[mitio]

What needs to be done:

• Move the current ambassador above the list of countries
• List the countries in a vertical list, smaller flags on the left of a clickable country name and expand/collapse the ambassadors for that country below it.
• Implement the "role" field and the "main contact" flag in the DB so that the listing can take advantage of them.

I inspected the model.

User profiles belonging to the group 'ambassadors' are the current ambassadors.

Maybe we can extend with a role field (blank for normal users) and add a proprerty that check if this field is == 'main contact'

I also think we need a new free-text role field.

However, the main ambassador's flag should be separate, I think. This would leave us to specify something else in the role field, if needed. I think that for the main ambassador, we can create a new group and use that as a "flag".

[michelesr]

I propose:

role = models.TextField(max_length=1000, blank=True)
main_contact = models.BooleanField(default=0)

The check would be (in pseudocode):

is_main_contact = 'ambassador' in User.groups and main_contact

Maybe the check can be avoided if we make sure that only ambassardors are able to subscribe as main contacts.

@michelesr Note that users are marked as ambassadors manually via the admin. The main contact flag will be set manually via the admin as well.

I am okay with the proposed model fields. Not sure why you'd prefer a boolean flag instead of a group for the main contact flag, but I'm okay with that as well--it was also my initial idea.

The only thing is that the role field seems a bit too long to me, we're not supposed to keep that much info there. Maybe up to 255 symbols would be fine, but I'm also okay with a limit of 1000.

Yeah, that's was only an example, limit can be set to 255 i guess.

Good. I'll start the implementation soon.
