Deferred models now automatically update only the fields which are
loaded from the db (with .only() or .defer()). In addition, any field
set manually after the load is updated on save.
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under
Python 2 for backwards compatibility).
* Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes.
* Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3
and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible).
Thus smart_str always returns a str objects.
* Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3
want a str.
Generic cleanup and dead code removal in deferred model field loading
and model.__reduce__().
Also fixed an issue where if an inherited model with a parent field
chain parent_ptr_id -> id would be deferred loaded, then accessing
the id field caused caused a database query, even if the id field's
value is already loaded in the parent_ptr_id field.
Added the ability to update only part of the model's fields in
model.save() by introducing a new kwarg "update_fields". Thanks
to all the numerous reviewers and commenters in the ticket
Existing modelforms tests were extended to cover this case and an equivalent set of tests was added for the model functionality.

The original implementation had a few silly bugs in it that meant that data was
not being used only on the instance of the class that it was appropriate for
(one of the traps when using class-level things). No more!
Thanks to Justin Bronn and Alex Gaynor for the patch.

A custom manager on a related object that filtered away objects would prevent
those objects being deleted via the relation. This is now fixed.

Calling the super() version of __reduce__ in Model.__reduce__ led to infinite
loops in Python prior to 2.5. We don't do that any longer.

In extreme cases, some fields are expensive to load from the database
(e.g. GIS fields requiring conversion, or large text fields). This
commit adds defer() and only() methods to querysets that allow the
caller to specify which fields should not be loaded unless they are
accessed.

Large portions of this are needed for #5420, so I implemented it fully.
Thanks to Ryan Kelly for an initial patch to get this started.
Refs #5420.

We can't use the default manager in Model.save_base(), since we need to
retrieve existing objects which might be filtered out by that manager. We now
always use a plain Manager instance at that point (or something that can
replace it, such as a GeoManager), making all existing rows in the
database visible to the saving code.
The logic for detecting a "suitable replacement" plain base is the same as for
related fields: if the use_for_related_fields is set on the manager subclass,
we can use it. The general requirement here is that we want a base class that
returns the appropriate QuerySet subclass, but does not restrict the rows
returned.
Fixed#8990, #9527.
Refs #2698 (which is not fixed by this change, but it's the first part of a
larger change to fix that bug.)

Adding a get_db_prep_save() call to the UpdateQuery code path meant it
was being called twice if you updated an existing model attribute. This
change removes that double call and also makes TimeField.to_python() a
little more robust for the benefit of the Oracle backend (just in case).

This removes a long-standing FIXME in the update() handling and allows for
greater flexibility in the values passed in. In particular, it brings updates
into line with saves for django.contrib.gis fields, so fixed#10411.

Previously, you could explicitly assign None to a non-null ForeignKey
(or other) field when creating the model (Child(parent=None), etc). We
now throw an exception when you do that, which matches the behaviour
when you assign None to the attribute after creation.

This was always not working reliably (model initialization and serialization
were two of the problems). Now, it's an explicit error. Also, documented.

Also added documentation describing how manager inheritance works (and when
manager aren't inherited). Based on some patches from sebastian_noack and

* Removed `Manipulator`, `AutomaticManipulator`, and related classes.
* Removed oldforms specific bits from model fields:
* Removed `validator_list` and `core` arguments from constructors.
* Removed the methods:
* `get_manipulator_field_names`
* `get_manipulator_field_objs`
* `get_manipulator_fields`
* `get_manipulator_new_data`
* `prepare_field_objs_and_params`
* `get_follow`
* Renamed `flatten_data` method to `value_to_string` for better alignment with its use by the serialization framework, which was the only remaining code using `flatten_data`.
* Removed oldforms methods from `django.db.models.Options` class: `get_followed_related_objects`, `get_data_holders`, `get_follow`, and `has_field_type`.
* Removed oldforms-admin specific options from `django.db.models.fields.related` classes: `num_in_admin`, `min_num_in_admin`, `max_num_in_admin`, `num_extra_on_change`, and `edit_inline`.
* Serialization framework
* `Serializer.get_string_value` now calls the model fields' renamed `value_to_string` methods.
* Removed a special-casing of `models.DateTimeField` in `core.serializers.base.Serializer.get_string_value` that's handled by `django.db.models.fields.DateTimeField.value_to_string`.
* Removed `django.core.validators`:
* Moved `ValidationError` exception to `django.core.exceptions`.
* For the couple places that were using validators, brought over the necessary code to maintain the same functionality.
* Introduced a SlugField form field for validation and to compliment the SlugField model field (refs #8040).
* Removed an oldforms-style model creation hack (refs #2160).

* Support for representing files as strings was removed. Use `django.core.files.base.ContentFile` instead.
* Support for representing uploaded files as dictionaries was removed. Use `django.core.files.uploadedfile.SimpleUploadedFile` instead.
* The `filename`, `file_name`, `file_size`, and `chuck` properties of `UploadedFile` were removed. Use the `name`, `name`, `size`, and `chunks` properties instead, respectively.
* The `get_FIELD_filename`, `get_FIELD_url`, `get_FIELD_size`, and `save_FIELD_file` methods for Models with `FileField` fields were removed. Instead, use the `path`, `url`, and `size` attributes and `save` method on the field itself, respectively.
* The `get_FIELD_width` and `get_FIELD_height` methods for Models with `ImageField` fields were removed. Use the `width` and `height` attributes on the field itself instead.
* The dispatcher `connect`, `disconnect`, `send`, and `sendExact` functions were removed. Use the signal object's own `connect`, `disconnect`, `send`, and `send` methods instead, respectively.
* The `form_for_model` and `form_for_instance` functions were removed. Use a `ModelForm` subclass instead.
* Support for importing `django.newforms` was removed. Use `django.forms` instead.
* Support for importing `django.utils.images` was removed. Use `django.core.files.images` instead.
* Support for the `follow` argument in the `create_object` and `update_object` generic views was removed. Use the `django.forms` package and the new `form_class` argument instead.

Though some attempts and backwards-compatibility were made, speed trumped compatibility. Thus, as usual, check BackwardsIncompatibleChanges for the complete list of backwards-incompatible changes.
Thanks to Jeremy Dunck and Keith Busell for the bulk of the work; some ideas from Brian Herring's previous work (refs #4561) were incorporated.
Documentation is, sigh, still forthcoming.
Fixes#6814 and #3951 (with the new dispatch_uid argument to connect).

* Model init no longer performs a database query to refetch the related objects it is passed.
* Model init now caches unsaved related objects correctly, too. (Previously, accessing the field would raise `DoesNotExist` error for `null=False` fields.)
* Added tests for assigning `None` to `null=True` `ForeignKey` fields (refs #6886).
git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8185 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
It turns out that we need to treat filename creation/display (in
particular, the upload_to path) differently depending upon whether the value is
out of the database or provided by other code and there's no reliable way to
determine that at the moment (although some later proposed changes might alter
that). So calling get_FIELD_filename on an unsaved model with a changed file
attribute will not necessarily return the same result as after the save().
Refs #5619. Fixed#7843.

This is a backward incompatible change. The admin contrib app has been
refactored. The newforms module has several improvements including FormSets
and Media definitions.

* The API now more closely matches a proper file API. This unfortunately means a few backwards-incompatible renamings; see BackwardsIncompatibleChanges. This refs #7593.
* While we were at it, renamed chunk() to chunks() to clarify that it's an iterator.
* Temporary uploaded files now property use the tempfile library behind the scenes which should ensure better cleanup of tempfiles (refs #7593 again).

A description of the new features can be found in the new [http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/upload_handing/ upload handling documentation]; the executive summary is that Django will now happily handle uploads of large files without issues.
This changes the representation of uploaded files from dictionaries to bona fide objects; see BackwardsIncompatibleChanges for details.

When model inheritance is used, the parent objects should be deleted as part of
the delete() call on the child.

Some fields need to know the right db_table setting in their own
contribute_to_class(), so waiting until Options._prepare() is a little
inconvenient. This is a deep-internals change. No effect on external code.

* Serializers were including all superclass fields in their output. Now only local fields are included.
* Implicit OneToOne primary keys were not correctly added to the metamodel, so they were always marked to be serialized, even though they were primary
* Model saving was too aggressive about creating new parent class instances during deserialization. Raw save on a model now skips saving of the parent class.
