That constrains the acceptable values of `direction` to one of 'up',
'down' or 'clear'. Any other value there will mean the URL isn't
matched.

So the URL is, for example:
/videos/1/upvote/
/videos/1/downvote/
/videos/1/clearvote/

and the view will have parameters of object_id 1 and direction up,
down or clear.
