`django.views.debug.technical_500_response` supports either a HTML or
plain text output. Currently, the client will be served HTML if they
support it, even if they preferred a plain text response.

Ideally, the user would be served HTML if it is their preference of the 2,
otherwise they'd be served plain text. If for whatever reason neither are
supported, serve plain text. This can be done with
`request.get_preferred_type`.
