This also prevents state modifications from corrupting previous states.
Previously, when a model defining a relation was unregistered first,
clearing the cache would cause its related models' _meta to be cleared
and would result in the old models losing track of their relations.
Calling Migration.mutate_state() now also allows to do in_place
mutations in case an intermediate state is thrown away later.
Thanks Anssi Kääriäinen for the idea, Ryan Hall for parts of the patch,
and Claude Paroz and Tim Graham for the review
Made MigrationGraph forwards_plan() and backwards_plan() fall back to an
iterative approach in case the recursive approach exceeds the recursion
depth limit.
This adds a new method, Apps.lazy_model_operation(), and a helper function,
lazy_related_operation(), which together supersede add_lazy_relation() and
make lazy model operations the responsibility of the App registry. This
system no longer uses the class_prepared signal.
Field.rel is now deprecated. Rel objects have now also remote_field
attribute. This means that self == self.remote_field.remote_field.
In addition, made the Rel objects a bit more like Field objects. Still,
marked ManyToManyFields as null=True.
Previously related fields didn't implement get_lookup, instead
related fields were treated specially. This commit removed some of
the special handling. In particular, related fields return Lookup
instances now, too.
Other notable changes in this commit is removal of support for
annotations in names_to_path().
If Field.choices is provided as an iterator, consume it in __init__ instead
of using itertools.tee (which ends up holding everything in memory
anyway). Fixes a bug where deconstruct() was consuming the iterator but
bypassing the call to `tee`.
Table alterations in SQLite require creating a new table and copying
data over from the old one. This change ensures that no Django model
ever exists with the temporary table name as its db_table attribute.
The query used a construct of qs.annotate().values().aggregate() where
the first annotate used an F-object reference and the values() and
aggregate() calls referenced that F-object.
Also made sure the inner query's select clause is as simple as possible,
and made sure .values().distinct().aggreate() works correctly.
Set apps.ready to False when rendering multiple models. This prevents
that the cache on Model._meta is expired on all models after each time a
single model is rendered. Prevented that Apps.clear_cache() refills the
cache on Apps.get_models(), so that the wrong value cannot be cached
when cloning a StateApps.
