#26109: Extra parameter check for loader.select_tamplate [Check if a string is
passed].

Currently supplying a string to `select_template` raise an `IOError`,
which is not meaningful. Here's a sample.
IOError at XXX
[Errno 21] Is a directory: u'xxx/site-
packages/django/contrib/admin/templates'
It's better to check if `template_name_list` is actually a list
(`Iterable`). If it is a string, we can either
- Raise a TypeError and suggest to use `get_template` function instead.
- Pass the string to `get_template` silently.
I am creating a pull request going with the first option. Happy to change
it if necessary.
