Field.rel is now deprecated. Rel objects have now also remote_field
attribute. This means that self == self.remote_field.remote_field.
In addition, made the Rel objects a bit more like Field objects. Still,
marked ManyToManyFields as null=True.
These cached properies were causing problems with pickling, and in
addition they were confusingly defined: field.rel.model._meta was
not the same as field.rel.opts.
Instead users should use field.rel.related_model._meta inplace of
field.rel.opts, and field.rel.to._meta in place of field.rel.to_opts.
The combination of BaseManager.from_queryset() and RenameMethodsBase results in
Manager.__module__ having the wrong value. This can be an issue when trying to
pickle the Manager class.
Additionally this patch solves the orthogonal problem that specialized
`QuerySet` like `ValuesQuerySet` didn't inherit from the current `QuerySet`
type. This wasn't an issue until now because we didn't officially support
custom `QuerySet` but it became necessary with the introduction of this new
feature.
