The 'raw' argument is sent with pre_save and post_save signals in order to
detect fixture loading and avoid un-needed operations in this case.
Unfortunatly, this argument is not sent with m2m_changed signal !
I find a work-around on stack-overflow for tests which consist in
disconnecting the m2m_signal in the setUpClass.
However, this is not applicable for loaddata management command.

Please send the 'raw' argument with the m2m_changed signal, this is
needed!

Comment:

This was also proposed in #17583 which was marked as a duplicate of #8399
but I don't see an elegant solution in that ticket, so maybe it's time to
accept this.
