Allow lazy evaluation of FuzzyChoice's iterators (Closes #184).
This allows the following idiom: ``user = factory.fuzzy.FuzzyChoice(User.objects.all())`` Previously, the ``User.objects.all()`` queryset would have been evaluated *at import time*; it is now evaluated with the first use of the ``FuzzyChoice``.
