Description
As detailed in the Django 1.8 release notes, namespace strings in URL patterns are considered deprecated.
However, when creating a new project in 1.8 with django-admin startproject, the default template displays:
url(r'^$', '{{ project_name }}.views.home', name='home'),
The default example provided in project_name/urls.py should follow best practice.

I do think this would make sense to backport, though, given that the examples use a deprecated-in-1.8 style; the project template should at least be self-consistent, IMO.

There has been some sensitivity to changing the project template late in the release cycle (now it's after the release) since other tutorials rely on it, so maybe we have to limit this fix to 1.9.
