ForeignKey or ManyToManyField attribute ``limit_choices_to`` can now
be a callable that returns either a ``Q`` object or a dict.
Thanks michael at actrix.gen.nz for the original suggestion.
Overriding the error messages now works for both unique fields, unique_together
and unique_for_date.
This patch changed the overriding logic to allow customizing NON_FIELD_ERRORS
since previously only fields' errors were customizable.

Thanks leahculver for the suggestion.
This is the result of Christopher Medrela's 2013 Summer of Code project.
Thanks also to Preston Holmes, Tim Graham, Anssi Kääriäinen, Florian
Apolloner, and Alex Gaynor for review notes along the way.
Also: Fixes#8579, fixes#3055, fixes#19844.
On Python 3 sorting Fields mixed with GenericForeignKeys doesn't work
as GenericForeignKey isn't a subclass of django.db.models.fields.Field.
Refs #21428.
The GenericRelation refactoring removed GenericRelations from
model._meta.many_to_many. This had the side effect of disallowing
editable GenericRelations in ModelForms. Editable GenericRelations
aren't officially supported, but if we don't fix this we don't offer any
upgrade path for those who used the ability to set editable=True
in GenericRelation subclass.
Thanks to Trac alias joshcartme for the report and stephencmd and Loic
for working on this issue.
model_to_dict() (used when rendering forms) queries the database
to get the list of primary keys for ManyToMany fields. This is
unnecessary if the field queryset has been prefetched, all the
keys are already in memory and can be obtained with a simple
iteration.
When a formset contained deletion for an existing instance, and the
instance was already deleted, django threw an exception. A common cause for
this was resubmit of the formset.
Original patch by Trac alias olau.
In addition this commit cleaned some code in _construct_form(). This
was needed as the primary key value the user submitted wasn't converted
correctly to python value in case the primary key field was also a
related field.
The __eq__ method now considers two instances without primary key value
equal only when they have same id(). The __hash__ method raises
TypeError for no primary key case.
Fixed#18864, fixed#18250
Thanks to Tim Graham for docs review.
Don't try to be smart about building a good-looking help string
because it evaluates translations too early, simply use the same old
strategy as before. Thanks Donald Stufft for the report.
Also, actually fix the case reported by the OP by special-casing
CheckboxSelectMultiple.
Added tests.
Refs #9321.
This is backward incompatible for custom form field/widgets that rely
on the hard-coded 'Hold down "Control", or "Command" on a Mac, to select
more than one.' sentence.
Application that use standard model form fields and widgets aren't
affected but need to start handling these help texts by themselves
before Django 1.8.
For more details, see the related release notes and deprecation timeline
sections added with this commit.
This also updates all dependent functionality, including modelform_factory
and modelformset_factory, and the generic views `ModelFormMixin`,
`CreateView` and `UpdateView` which gain a new `fields` attribute.
