Fixed#17957 -- when using Oracle and character fields, the fields
were set null = True to ease the handling of empty strings. This
caused problems when using multiple databases from different vendors,
or when the character field happened to be also a primary key.
The handling was changed so that NOT NULL is not emitted on Oracle
even if field.null = False, and field.null is not touched otherwise.
Thanks to bhuztez for the report, ramiro for triaging & comments,
ikelly for the patch and alex for reviewing.
Implemented this by adding an internal hook for work that should be performed
before that point.
Also, regarding the `DatabaseCreation.set_autocommit()` method:
* Stop using it for such tasks
* Stop providing an implementation that tries to cover all the possible
idioms a third party database backend DB-API 2 driver could need to activate
autocommit. It is now left for third party backends to implement.
This can be backwards incompatible in the case of user applications that:
* Had started using this method
* Use a third a party database backend

In Oracle, the name of a DB as handled by Django hasn't a counterpart anyway. So use the 'production DB name' as it was done before.

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.

NOTE: This change is backwards incompatible for some users.
If you are using a 32-bit platform, you will observe no differences as a
result of this change. However, users on 64-bit platforms may experience
some problems using the `reset` management command.
Prior to this change, 64-bit platforms would generate a 64-bit, 16 character
digest in the constraint name; for example:
ALTER TABLE `myapp_sometable` ADD CONSTRAINT `object_id_refs_id_5e8f10c132091d1e` FOREIGN KEY ...
Following this change, all platforms, regardless of word size, will
generate a 32-bit, 8 character digest in the constraint name; for example:
ALTER TABLE `myapp_sometable` ADD CONSTRAINT `object_id_refs_id_32091d1e` FOREIGN KEY ...
As a result of this change, you will not be able to use the `reset`
management command on any table created with 64-bit constraints. This
is because the the new generated name will not match the historically
generated name; as a result, the SQL constructed by the `reset` command
will be invalid.
If you need to reset an application that was created with 64-bit
constraints, you will need to manually drop the old constraint prior
to invoking `reset`.

This allows a model to be defined which is not subject to database table
creation and removal. Useful for models that sit over existing tables or
database views.
Thanks to Alexander Myodov, Wolfgang Kriesing and Ryan Kelly for the bulk of
this patch.

Allows us to reuse the same code in multiple places, avoiding new and
interesting bugs (the testing framework had a DIY version that was slightly
wrong, for example). Fixed#9833.

This change may be slightly backwards incompatible, if existing tests need to test transactional behavior, or if they rely on invalid assumptions or a specific test case ordering. For the first case, django.test.TransactionTestCase should be used. TransactionTestCase is also a quick fix to get around test case errors revealed by the new rollback approach, but a better long-term fix is to correct the test case. See the testing doc for full details.
Many thanks to:
* Marc Remolt for the initial proposal and implementation.
* Luke Plant for initial testing and improving the implementation.
* Ramiro Morales for feedback and help with tracking down a mysterious PostgreSQL issue.
* Eric Holscher for feedback regarding the effect of the change on the Ellington testsuite.
* Russell Keith-Magee for guidance and feedback from beginning to end.

columns when creating tables. Patch from Ian Kelly.
Columns are NULL by default, so we only need to use "NOT NULL" when we want
non-default behaviour.
