Pass the extra_content from get_dated_items() as kwargs into
get_context_data() to allow users access to it.
BaseDateListView.get() currently modifies the context after calling
get_context_data(), which prevents users from access those data in their
base classes. I ran into this suprising quirk when I wanted to access the
current month in my MonthArchiveView subclass's get_context_data().
I have created a GitHub pull request
https://github.com/django/django/pull/8364
(To really tidy things up, we could have all instances get_dated_items()
return a single dictionary that we pass to get_context_data as kwargs, but
I am a realist on occasion...)
