ENH: Adds quantopian-quandl bundle as new default.
This data bundle will use the quantopian mirror of the quandl WIKI data instead of downloading from quandl directly. This dramatically improves the speed because we do not pay the rate limiting for quandl and we can send the data in the format zipline expects.
