Multi-currency

Multi-currency - support for multiple currencies for goods in the shop.

the main currency should always be specified in the product (Currency.is_main), in which the calculation of all orders will be carried out. It is on this currency will be billed and the payment is made.

Implementation layout requires close attention, because you can not just display field $product->price or $product->old_price, if your store uses more than one currency.

Currently we implemented the ability to set the price for the products in the currency. Displaying goods prices specified in the template.

Changing the display of prices in the currency based on user selection has not been realized yet (follow https://github.com/DevGroup-ru/dotplant2/issues/173 ).
