ExperimentWaffleFlag handles logic around experimental bucketing and whitelisting.
You'll have one main flag that gates the experiment. This allows you to control the scope
of your experiment and always provides a quick kill switch.
But you'll also have smaller related flags that can force bucketing certain users into
specific buckets of your experiment. Those can be set using a waffle named like
"main_flag.BUCKET_NUM" (e.g. "course_experience.animated_exy.0") to force
users that pass the first main waffle check into a specific bucket experience.
If you pass this flag a course key, tracking calls to segment will be made per-course-run
(rather than one call overall) and will include the course key.
You can also control whether the experiment only affects future enrollments by setting
an ExperimentKeyValue model object with a key of 'enrollment_start' to the date of the
first enrollments that should be bucketed.
Bucket 0 is assumed to be the control bucket.
