Thanks goes to void for the comprehensive report, to Pedro Mourelle for
the fix and to Bryan Veloso, Łukasz Rekucki and Claude Paroz for the
review.

This fix includes the following changes:

* Modified layout to top-aligned labels.
* Added 'air' for inputs (the padding was really needed there.). It
  adjust good to zoom in/out.
* Removed float attributes from label and inputs in login form.
* Removed useless text-align property.

Refs #19933.

Fixed #19962 - Added a note about SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE and browsers that persist sessions.

Thanks David Sanders.

Thanks limscoder for the report and niwi for the draft patch.

* Grouped related methods together -- with banner comments :/

* Added docstrings.
* Used the same order in all wrappers.

Thanks Michael Jung, Charl Botha and Florian Apolloner for review
and help on the patch.

Also made some import cleanups while I was there.

Refs #10399.

Thanks ratsonale for spotting this mistake.

This was used at the time the 'database' option did not default to
DEFAULT_DB_ALIAS in make_option.

Thanks edd at slipszenko.net for the report.

Thanks Simon Charette for the review.

Thanks tomas_00 for the report.

Thanks Anssi Kääriäinen and Karen Tracey for their inputs.

Also added a little improvement to sql/query.py to get rid of
non-necessary IS NOT NULL check.

Thanks to Bruno Renie for reporting.

Fixed two test failures when tmp dirs are below a symlink.

This affects OS X where /var is a symlink to /private/var.

Fixed a typo in Python 3 porting guide.

Thanks Randy Salvo for the report.

* StandardError doesn't exist any more under Python 3.
* Python 2.6 still allows `raise "foo"`.

    Removed redundant exception wrapping.

    This is now taken care of by the cursor wrapper.

    Wrapped database exceptions in the base backend.

    This covers the most common PEP-249 APIs:
    - Connection APIs: close(), commit(), rollback(), cursor()
    - Cursor APIs: callproc(), close(), execute(), executemany(),
      fetchone(), fetchmany(), fetchall(), nextset().

    Fixed #19920.

    Added a wrap_database_exception context manager and decorator.

    It re-throws backend-specific exceptions using Django's common wrappers.

There were a couple of errors in ._dirty flag handling:
  * It started as None, but was never reset to None.
  * The _dirty flag was sometimes used to indicate if the connection
    was inside transaction management, but this was not done
    consistently. This also meant the flag had three separate values.
  * The None value had a special meaning, causing for example inability
    to commit() on new connection unless enter/leave tx management was
    done.
  * The _dirty was tracking "connection in transaction" state, but only
    in managed transactions.
  * Some tests never reset the transaction state of the used connection.
  * And some additional less important changes.

This commit has some potential for regressions, but as the above list
shows, the current situation isn't perfect either.

Thanks Preston Holmes for the text.
