[Django] #27242: Add get_object_or_none to django.shortcuts
Django

I think quite often we need to find object of certain model and return
`None` if it does not exist. I suggest to add this to `django.shortcuts`:
{{{#!python
def get_object_or_none(klass, *args, **kwargs):
queryset = _get_queryset(klass)
try:
return queryset.get(*args, **kwargs)
except queryset.model.DoesNotExist:
return None
}}}
Yes, we can easily create this in our own code, but maybe consider to add
this to the core?

Quite often we need to find object of certain model and return `None` if
it does not exist. I suggest to add this to `django.shortcuts` similar to
`get_object_or_404`:
{{{#!python
def get_object_or_none(klass, *args, **kwargs):
queryset = _get_queryset(klass)
try:
return queryset.get(*args, **kwargs)
except queryset.model.DoesNotExist:
return None
}}}

Comment (by arogachev):
Sorry. I tried to use search to find if similar issues are already exist
(I was pretty sure about that), but din't find them.
Now it's clear to me - it needs to be included in own codebase.
