Notably it will fail to report a Model.DoesNotExist exceptions because
the class itself isn't pickleable. (Django has specific code to make its
instances pickleable.)
Use the same code path for:
- a database that has the same settings as another database
(as defined by test_db_signature)
- a database this is defined as a mirror of another database
There's no conceptual difference between these two cases.
Thanks Shai for the suggestion.
Added a --debug-sql option for tests and runtests.py which outputs the
SQL logger for failing tests. When combined with --verbosity=2, it also
outputs the SQL for passing tests.
Thanks to Berker, Tim, Markus, Shai, Josh and Anssi for review and
discussion.
This is useful for debugging side effects affecting tests that
are usually executed before a given test. Full suite and pair
tests sort cases more or less deterministically, thus some test
cross-dependencies are easier to reveal by reversing the order.
Thanks Preston Timmons for the review.
Keeping backwards compatibility with test_runner.option_list is
tricky and would imply transforming an optparse.Option to an
argparse.Action. I choose to introduce a backwards incompatible
change because it only affects testing, not runtime behavior.
Change database test settings from "TEST_"-prefixed entries in the
database settings dictionary to setting in a dictionary that is itself
an entry "TEST" in the database settings.

Thanks Josh Smeaton for review.
Thanks to Preston Timmons for the bulk of the work on the patch, especially
updating Django's own test suite to comply with the requirements of the new
runner. Thanks also to Jannis Leidel and Mahdi Yusuf for earlier work on the
patch and the discovery runner.
