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.

The original implementation had a few silly bugs in it that meant that data was
not being used only on the instance of the class that it was appropriate for
(one of the traps when using class-level things). No more!
Thanks to Justin Bronn and Alex Gaynor for the patch.

* 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.
