Slightly reworded 'last()' docs.
Fixed #20453 -- inspectdb test failure on Oracle
Fixed #20015 -- date__startswith('2008') fails under Oracle

Removed the explicit casting of strings to dates
Fixed #20012 -- test_year_lookup_edge_case fails under Oracle

Used formatted date instead of datetime object for the end of the
year range, as the datetime object loses fractions-of-seconds when
inserted into the db.
Fixed #18709 -- Check if initial_value is a callable

In _get_changed_data, check if initial_value is a callable and call it
if it is.

Fixed #19237 -- Used HTML parser to strip tags

The regex method used until now for the strip_tags utility is fast,
but subject to flaws and security issues. Consensus and good
practice lead use to use a slower but safer method.

gettext 0.15 has been released in July 2006.
