This monster of a patch is the result of Alex Gaynor's 2009 Google Summer of Code project.
Congratulations to Alex for a job well done.
Big thanks also go to:
* Justin Bronn for keeping GIS in line with the changes,

* Brett Hoerner, Jon Loyens, and Craig Kimmerer for their feedback.
* Malcolm Treddinick for his guidance during the GSoC submission process.
* Simon Willison for driving the original design process
* Cal Henderson for complaining about ponies he wanted.
... and everyone else too numerous to mention that helped to bring this feature into fruition.

This is backwards-compatible but will likely break third-party database backends. Specific API changes are:
* BaseDatabaseWrapper.__init__() now takes a settings_dict instead of a settings module. It's called settings_dict to disambiguate, and for easy grepability. This should be a dictionary containing DATABASE_NAME, etc.
* BaseDatabaseWrapper has a settings_dict attribute instead of an options attribute. BaseDatabaseWrapper.options is now BaseDatabaseWrapper['DATABASE_OPTIONS']
* BaseDatabaseWrapper._cursor() no longer takes a settings argument.
* BaseDatabaseClient.__init__() now takes a connection argument (a DatabaseWrapper instance) instead of no arguments.

added database.txt documentation; currently only describing Django-related
features of MySQL versions.
As of this commit, there are four known test failures due to (a) no transaction
support with MyISAM storage engine and (b) MySQLdb automatically creating
decimal types for Django's "float" field.
