Refactored compiler SELECT, GROUP BY and ORDER BY generation.
While there, also refactored select_related() implementation
(get_cached_row() and get_klass_info() are now gone!).
Made get_db_converters() method work on expressions instead of
internal_type. This allows the backend converters to target
specific expressions if need be.
Added query.context, this can be used to set per-query state.
Also changed the signature of database converters. They now accept
context as an argument.
Added functions and tests
Added docs and more tests
Added TextField converter to mysql backend
Aliased Value as V in example docs and tests
Removed unicode_compatible in example
Fixed console emulation in examples
Use INTERVAL DAY(9) TO SECOND(6) for Durationfield on Oracle rather than
storing as a NUMBER(19) of microseconds.
There are issues with cx_Oracle which require some extra data
manipulation in the database backend when constructing queries, but it
handles the conversion back to timedelta objects cleanly.
Thanks to Shai for the review.
A field for storing periods of time - modeled in Python by timedelta. It
is stored in the native interval data type on PostgreSQL and as a bigint
of microseconds on other backends.
Also includes significant changes to the internals of time related maths
in expressions, including the removal of DateModifierNode.
Thanks to Tim and Josh in particular for reviews.
Also removed Query.join_map. This structure was used to speed up join
reuse calculation. Initial benchmarking shows that this isn't actually
needed. If there are use cases where the removal has real-world
performance implications, it should be relatively straightforward to
reintroduce it as map {alias: [Join-like objects]}.
Aggregation over subquery produced syntactically incorrect queries in
some cases as Django didn't ensure that source expressions of the
aggregation were present in the subquery.
The .dates() queries were implemented by using custom Query, QuerySet,
and Compiler classes. Instead implement them by using expressions and
database converters APIs.
Added relabeled_clone() method to sql.Query to fix the problem. It
manifested itself in rare cases where at least double nested subquery's
filter condition might target non-existing alias.
Thanks to Trac alias ris for reporting the problem.
