implicitly initialized to None via first access; this action,
which has always resulted in a population of the attribute,
now emits an attribute event just like any other attribute set
operation and generates the same kind of history as one.  Additionally,
many mapper internal operations will no longer implicitly generate
these "None" values when various never-set attributes are checked.
These are subtle behavioral fixes to attribute mechanics which provide
a better solution to the problem of :ticket:`3060`, which also
involves recognition of attributes explicitly set to ``None``
vs. attributes that were never set.

scenario, where an INSERT/DELETE can be turned into an UPDATE.
In this situation, a many-to-one relationship set to None, or
in some cases a scalar attribute set to None, may not be detected
as a net change in value, and therefore the UPDATE would not reset
what was on the previous row.   This is due to some as-yet
unresovled side effects of the way attribute history works in terms
of implicitly assuming None isn't really a "change" for a previously
un-set attribute.  See also :ticket:`3061`. fixes #3060

to True, indicates that a series of DELETE statements should confirm
that the cursor rowcount matches the number of primary keys that should
have matched;  this behavior had been taken off in most cases
(except when version_id is used) to support the unusual edge case of
self-referential ON DELETE CASCADE; to accomodate this, the message
is now just a warning, not an exception, and the flag can be used
to indicate a mapping that expects self-refererntial cascaded
deletes of this nature.  See also :ticket:`2403` for background on the
original change. re: #2403 fix #3007

where one is to be deleted from ON DELETE CASCADE succeeds; the check here makes that fail.
We will need to add an option to enable/disable this check per mapping, will likely
do this in next version

it for DELETE would fail to target the correct row for DELETE.
Then to compound matters, basic "number of rows matched" checks were
not being performed.  Both issues are fixed, however note that the
"rows matched" check requires so-called "sane multi-row count"
functionality; the DBAPI's executemany() method must count up the
rows matched by individual statements and SQLAlchemy's dialect must
mark this feature as supported, currently applies to some mysql dialects,
psycopg2, sqlite only. fixes #3006
- Enabled "sane multi-row count" checking for the psycopg2 DBAPI, as
this seems to be supported as of psycopg2 2.0.9.

we can also leave the version id alone.

to rely upon server generated version identifiers, using triggers
or other database-provided versioning features, by passing the value
``False``.  The ORM will use RETURNING when available to immediately
load the new version identifier, else it will emit a second SELECT.
[ticket:2793]
- The ``eager_defaults`` flag of :class:`.Mapper` will now allow the
newly generated default values to be fetched using an inline
RETURNING clause, rather than a second SELECT statement, for backends
that support RETURNING.
- Added a new variant to :meth:`.ValuesBase.returning` called
:meth:`.ValuesBase.return_defaults`; this allows arbitrary columns
to be added to the RETURNING clause of the statement without interfering
with the compilers usual "implicit returning" feature, which is used to
efficiently fetch newly generated primary key values.  For supporting
backends, a dictionary of all fetched values is present at
:attr:`.ResultProxy.returned_defaults`.
- add a glossary entry for RETURNING
- add documentation for version id generation, [ticket:867]

- rework the event system so that event modules load after their
targets, dependencies are reversed
- create an improved strategy lookup system for the ORM
- rework the ORM to have very few import cycles
- move out "importlater" to just util.dependency
- other tricks to cross-populate modules in as clear a way as possible
