Bb view hooks

[akre54]

Basic gist:

• Use native methods where possible (prefer @el to @$el in library code like Chaplin).
• view.$ now returns an array-like (has numeric length) object, meaning use view.$(selector)[0] to get an el instance, or for el in view.$(selector) for a list (dont rely on auto jquery each differences.
• Lastly, Backbone adds a delegate method that allows us to replace direct calls to $el.on, and more importantly allows us to remove the delegateEvents workaround. We no longer need a keepOld param since we can just call delegate directly without blowing away old ones with undelegateEvents each time.

Still some tests failing.

downside of always passing a non-jq wrapped element is that we have to re-wrap it. jQuery methods like toggle aren't easily recreated in native code so easiest to leave them around.

For things like addClass, it may make sense to force people to provide a polyfill if they need older browsers.
