Implemented an 'atomic' decorator and context manager.

Currently it only works in autocommit mode.

"""
This class guarantees the atomic execution of a given block.
An instance can be used either as a decorator or as a context manager.
When it's used as a decorator, __call__ wraps the execution of the
decorated function in the instance itself, used as a context manager.
When it's used as a context manager, __enter__ creates a transaction or a
savepoint, depending on whether a transaction is already in progress, and
__exit__ commits the transaction or releases the savepoint on normal exit,
and rolls back the transaction or to the savepoint on exceptions.
A stack of savepoints identifiers is maintained as an attribute of the
connection. None denotes a plain transaction.
This allows reentrancy even if the same AtomicWrapper is reused. For
example, it's possible to define `oa = @atomic('other')` and use `@ao` or
`with oa:` multiple times.
Since database connections are thread-local, this is thread-safe.

multiple databases and want transaction control over databases other than
"default", you will need to write your own transaction middleware.
Controlling transactions explicitly
-----------------------------------
.. versionadded:: 1.6
Django provides a single API to control database transactions.
.. function:: atomic(using=None)
This function creates an atomic block for writes to the database.
(Atomicity is the defining property of database transactions.)
When the block completes successfully, the changes are committed to the
database. When it raises an exception, the changes are rolled back.
``atomic`` can be nested. In this case, when an inner block completes
successfully, its effects can still be rolled back if an exception is
raised in the outer block at a later point.
``atomic`` takes a ``using`` argument which should be the name of a
database. If this argument isn't provided, Django uses the ``"default"``
database.
``atomic`` is usable both as a decorator::
from django.db import transaction
@transaction.atomic
def viewfunc(request):
# This code executes inside a transaction.
do_stuff()
and as a context manager::
from django.db import transaction
def viewfunc(request):
# This code executes in autocommit mode (Django's default).
do_stuff()
with transaction.atomic():
# This code executes inside a transaction.
do_more_stuff()
Wrapping ``atomic`` in a try/except block allows for natural handling of
integrity errors::
from django.db import IntegrityError, transaction
@transaction.atomic
def viewfunc(request):
do_stuff()
try:
with transaction.atomic():
do_stuff_that_could_fail()
except IntegrityError:
handle_exception()
do_more_stuff()
In this example, even if ``do_stuff_that_could_fail()`` causes a database
error by breaking an integrity constraint, you can execute queries in
``do_more_stuff()``, and the changes from ``do_stuff()`` are still there.
In order to guarantee atomicity, ``atomic`` disables some APIs. Attempting
to commit, roll back, or change the autocommit state of the database
connection within an ``atomic`` block will raise an exception.
``atomic`` can only be used in autocommit mode. It will raise an exception
if autocommit is turned off.
Under the hood, Django's transaction management code:
- opens a transaction when entering the outermost ``atomic`` block;
- creates a savepoint when entering an inner ``atomic`` block;
- releases or rolls back to the savepoint when exiting an inner block;
- commits or rolls back the transaction when exiting the outermost block.

commits before any statement other than ``SELECT``, ``INSERT``, ``UPDATE``,
``DELETE`` and ``REPLACE``.)
As a consequence, savepoints are only usable if you start a transaction
manually while in autocommit mode, and Django doesn't provide an API to
achieve that.
As a consequence, savepoints are only usable inside a transaction ie. inside
an :func:`atomic` block.
