    Fixed #21012 -- Thread-local caches, like databases.
Fixed #21488 -- Multiple locales treatment in i18n commands.

Removed multiple locales separated by commas variation (that wasn't
working as documented) in favor of simply allowing use of the
``--locale``/``-l`` options more than once for ``makemessages`` and
``compilemessages``.

Thanks Romain Beylerian for the report and Claude, Simon for their help.

Allowed running the test suite without memcached (!)

Problem were users calling messages.debug/info/* with a wrong argument
and getting the error "You cannot add messages without installing
MessageMiddleware"

Thanks to trac-user merb for the report.
A handful of flake8 fixes
Fixed #21200 -- Consistantly raise errors across all cache backends.

Thanks to tchaumeny for the patch.
