Under some versions of OS X, failure in getting the default system
locale during the syncdb operation of the auth app were causing hard to
diagnose problems afterwards.
No solution based on getpreferredencoding() was chosen because it has
its own problems with certain combinations of Python and OS X versions
(e.g. http://bugs.python.org/issue6202).
Thanks prestonsimmons for the report and prestonsimmons and willhardy
for the initial patch.
Fixes#16017.
* 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).

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).
