Previously the FORMAT_MODULE_PATH setting only accepted one string (dotted
module path). A feature has been added to also allow a list of strings.
This is useful when using several reusable third party apps that define new
formats. We can now use them all and we can even override some of the formats
by providing a project-wide format module.

Change database test settings from "TEST_"-prefixed entries in the
database settings dictionary to setting in a dictionary that is itself
an entry "TEST" in the database settings.
Refs #21775
Thanks Josh Smeaton for review.
This feature allows the default `TIMEOUT` Cache argument to be set to `None`,
so that cache instances can set a non-expiring key as the default,
instead of using the default value of 5 minutes.
Previously, this was possible only by passing `None` as an argument to
the set() method of objects of type `BaseCache` (and subtypes).
Introduced a number of settings to configure max-age, path, and domain
for the language cookie: LANGUAGE_COOKIE_AGE, LANGUAGE_COOKIE_PATH and
LANGUAGE_COOKIE_DOMAIN.
Thanks sahid for the suggestion.
This is the result of Christopher Medrela's 2013 Summer of Code project.
Thanks also to Preston Holmes, Tim Graham, Anssi Kääriäinen, Florian
Apolloner, and Alex Gaynor for review notes along the way.
Also: Fixes #8579, fixes #3055, fixes #19844.
When STATIC_ROOT wasn't set, collectstatic --clear would delete
every files within the current directory and its descendants.
This patch makes the following changes:
Prevent collectstatic from running if STATIC_ROOT isn't set.
Fixed an issue that prevented collectstatic from displaying the
destination directory.
Changed the warning header to notify when the command is run
in dry-run mode.
* Removed ADMIN_FOR setting and warn warning
* Group view functions by namespace instead of site
* Added a test verifying namespaces are listed
Thanks to Claude Paroz for reviewing and ideas for improvement.
Previously when collecting static files, the directories would receive permissions
from the global umask. Now the default permission comes from FILE_UPLOAD_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS
and there's an option to specify the permissions by subclassing any of the
static files storage classes and setting the directory_permissions_mode parameter.
The settings reference documentation doesn't seem the right place to
invite users to write their own db and cache backends.
Also the actual wording makes the task sound trivial, which is hardly
the case; writing a custom db backend is a very difficult task, and
writing a custom cache backend is full of gotcha.
Corrected LANGUAGES documentation on how to translate language
names. Now using django.utils.translation.ugettext_lazy instead
of a dummy gettext() function.
Thanks to Salvatore for the report.

Added settings.SESSION_SERIALIZER which is the import path of a serializer
to use for sessions.
