Made SQLCompiler.execute_sql(result_type) more explicit.

Updated SQLUpdateCompiler.execute_sql to match the behavior described in
the docstring; the 'first non-empty query' will now include all queries,
not just the main and first related update.

Added CURSOR and NO_RESULTS result_type constants to make the usages more
self documenting and allow execute_sql to explicitly close the cursor when
it is no longer needed.
