The sql_flush() positional argument sequences is replaced by the boolean
keyword-only argument reset_sequences. This ensures that the old
function signature can't be used by mistake when upgrading Django. When
the new argument is True, the sequences of the truncated tables will
reset. Using a single boolean value, rather than a list, allows making a
binary yes/no choice as to whether to reset all sequences rather than a
working on a completely different set.
Thanks Josh Smeaton, Mariusz Felisiak, Sergey Fedoseev, Simon Charettes,
Adam Chainz/Johnson and Tim Graham for comments and reviews and Jamie
Cockburn for initial patch.
