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.
Refs #11077, #17032, and #18670.
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,
* Karen Tracey and Jani Tiainen for their help testing Oracle support
* 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.

* Laid foundations for SpatiaLite support in `GeoQuerySet`, `GeoWhereNode` and the tests.
* Added the `Collect` aggregate for PostGIS (still needs tests).
* Oracle now goes to 11.
* The backend-specific `SpatialRefSys` and `GeometryColumns` models are now attributes of `SpatialBackend`.
* Renamed `GeometryField` attributes to be public that were private (e.g., `_srid` -> `srid` and `_geom` -> `geom_type`).
* Renamed `create_test_db` to `create_test_spatial_db`.
* Removed the legacy classes `GeoMixin` and `GeoQ`.
* Removed evil `\` from spatial backend fields.
* Moved shapefile data from `tests/layermap` to `tests/data`.
Fixed#9794. Refs #9686.

* Geometries now allow list-like manipulation, e.g., can add, insert, delete vertexes (or other geometries in collections) like Python lists. Thanks, Aryeh Leib Taurog.
* Added support for GEOS prepared geometries via `prepared` property. Prepared geometries significantly speed up certain operations.
* Added support for GEOS cascaded union as `MultiPolygon.cascaded_union` property.
* Added support for GEOS line merge as `merged` property on `LineString`, and `MultiLineString` geometries. Thanks, Paul Smith.
* No longer use the deprecated C API for serialization to/from WKB and WKT. Now use the GEOS I/O classes, which are now exposed as `WKTReader`, `WKTWriter`, `WKBReader`, and `WKBWriter` (which supports 3D and SRID inclusion)
* Moved each type of geometry to their own module, eliminating the cluttered `geometries.py`.
* Internally, all C API methods are explicitly called from a module rather than a star import.
Fixed#9557, #9877, #10222

* All C API method explictly called from their prototype module, no longer imported via *.
* Applied DRY to C pointer management, classes that do so subclass from `GDALBase`.
* `OGRGeometry`: Added `from_bbox` class method (patch from Christopher Schmidt) and `kml` property.
* `SpatialReference`: Now initialize with `SetFromUserInput` (initialization is now more simple and flexible); removed duplicate methods.
* `Envelope`: Added `expand_to_include` method and now allow same coordinates for lower left and upper right points. Thanks to Paul Smith for tickets and patches.
* `OGRGeomType`: Now treat OGC 'Geometry' type as 'Unknown'.
Fixed#9855, #10368, #10380. Refs #9806.
