Upgrading Django for Troggle

Why this used to be difficult

-

Before Django 3.0, whenever Django was upgraded to a new version things broke across the entire django package, including things which we don't conciously use but are internal dependencies within Django. These were 'the way to do it' when troggle was first written for Django 0.7 in 2006. So upgrading troggle to a new Django version required not just a broad beadth of knowledge across troggle, but also across the entire breadth of django itself. And the error messages are sometimes very unhelpful. This is no longer the case and the Django organisation has a very clear "non-breaking" policy between LTS releases. +

 Follow the instructions in the "Unit tests" section installed locally at docs/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests.txt, published online at docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests/
 This involves running git clone on the django source repo to download the tests.  We hope we never have to do this again but in case we get incomprehensible bugs in future, we should be prepared to do so.
