Russell Keith-Magee ff60c5f9de Fixed #1142 -- Added multiple database support.
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.

Adrian Holovaty 315145f7ca Fixed #10459 -- Refactored the internals of database connection objects so that connections know their own settings and pass around settings as dictionaries instead of passing around the Django settings module itself. This will make it easier for multiple database support. Thanks to Alex Gaynor for the initial patch.
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.

Adrian Holovaty 42a878cfea db: Gave each DatabaseClient class an 'executable_name' attribute (e.g., 'psql' or 'mysql'), so that we can use it to make a more helpful error message. Refs #8978

Malcolm Tredinnick f9c4ce5123 Fixed #2635 -- Added improved MySQL backend support from Andy Dustman. Also
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.
