Adrian Holovaty ac2b9f2a3f Added a db_type() method to the database Field class. This is a hook for calculating the database column type for a given Field. Also converted all management.py CREATE TABLE statements to use db_type(), which made that code cleaner. The Field.get_internal_type() hook still exists, but we should consider removing it at some point, because db_type() is more general. Also added docs -- the beginnings of docs on how to create custom database Field classes. This is backwards-compatible.

Malcolm Tredinnick 92c35a0617 Fixed #2365, #3324 -- Renamed FloatField to DecimalField and changed the code
to return Decimal instances in Python for this field. Backwards incompatible
change.

Added a real FloatField (stores floats in the database) and support for
FloatField and DecimalField in newforms (analogous to IntegerField).

Included decimal.py module (as django.utils._decimal) from Python 2.4. This is
license compatible with Django and included for Python 2.3 compatibility only.

Large portions of this work are based on patches from Andy Durdin and Jorge
Gajon.

is only for backwards compatibility purposes.
