query being generated would produce a "columns being replaced"
warning for a statement with two same-named columns,
as the internal SELECT wouldn't have use_labels set.

attribute will now honor the "passive" flag
passed to it; as this defaults to ``PASSIVE_OFF``, the function will
by default query the database if the value is not present.
This is a behavioral change vs. 0.8.  [ticket:2787]
- Added new method :meth:`.AttributeState.load_history`, works like
:attr:`.AttributeState.history` but also fires loader callables.

with conjunctions, e.g.
``None`` :func:`.expression.null` :func:`.expression.true`
:func:`.expression.false`, including consistency in rendering NULL
in conjunctions, "short-circuiting" of :func:`.and_` and :func:`.or_`
expressions which contain boolean constants, and rendering of
boolean constants and expressions as compared to "1" or "0" for backends
that don't feature ``true``/``false`` constants. [ticket:2804]

This enables the subquery eager loader strategy to apply a DISTINCT
to the innermost SELECT subquery, to assist in the case where
duplicate rows are generated by the innermost query which corresponds
to this relationship (there's not yet a general solution to the issue
of dupe rows within subquery eager loading, however, when joins outside
of the innermost subquery produce dupes).  When the flag
is set to ``True``, the DISTINCT is rendered unconditionally, and when
it is set to ``None``, DISTINCT is rendered if the innermost relationship
targets columns that do not comprise a full primary key.
The option defaults to False in 0.8 (e.g. off by default in all cases),
None in 0.9 (e.g. automatic by default).   Thanks to Alexander Koval
for help with this. [ticket:2836]

scalar attributes here and not relationships, else we get an error if there's no
actual scalars to load
