`sort_dependencies` incorrectly interpreted 'complex' M2M relations
(with explicit through models) as dependencies for a model. This caused
circular complex M2M relations to be unserializable by dumpdata.
Thanks to aneil for the report and outofculture for initial tests.
Added ``--natural-foreign`` and ``--natural-primary`` options and
deprecated the ``--natural`` option to the ``dumpdata`` management
command.
Added ``use_natural_foreign_keys`` and ``use_natural_primary_keys``
arguments and deprecated the ``use_natural_keys`` argument to
``django.core.serializers.Serializer.serialize()``.
Thanks SmileyChris for the suggestion.
It doesn't work as one might expect on a certain database backend where
autocommits_when_autocommit_is_off = True. That backend happens to be
popular for running tests.
If the fixture doesn't exist, loaddata will output a warning.
The fixture named "initial_data" is exceptional though; if it
doesn't exist, the warning is not emitted. This allows syncdb and
flush management commands to attempt to load it without causing
spurious warnings.
Thanks to Derega, ptone, dirigeant and d1ffuz0r for contributions
to the ticket.
