Any extra(select=...) columns can be ignored in the SQL for dates, since we are
only interested in extracting distinct date values. We were previously
including them by accident and it was generating incorrect SQL.

This was triggered by r8794, but was, in fact, fairly fragile before then. The
current fix is the correct way we should be doing this.

Also added a section to the documentation to indicate why it's probably not a
good idea to rely on this feature for complex stuff. Garbage in, garbage out
applies even to Django code.
Thanks to erik for the test case for this one.
