It could be useful for the final shell's user to have some default imports
to avoid extra work of customizing to the user. Following this discussion
[https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/default-automatic-imports-in-the-
shell/33708] , it appears that the most used objects are:
- Utilities for date and timezone, namely `datetime` and
`django.utils.timezone` modules
- Utilites for making or debugging database queries, namely
`django.db.models` and `django.db.models.functions`modules
- Settings of your projects, namely `django.conf.settings`
