Comment (by Jacob Walls):

The uuid datatype was introduced in 10.7. If we prioritize dropping this
support (scheduled anyway) then we can avoid tinkering with the test
altered in 0174a85770356fd12e4c8daa42a4f1c752ae00e6 that produces this
failure:

{{{
django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1901, "Function or expression
'cast(`field` as char(32) charset utf8mb4)' cannot be used in the
GENERATED ALWAYS AS clause of `field_copy`")
}}}

for this model:
{{{#!py
class GeneratedModelFieldWithConverters(models.Model):
field = models.UUIDField()
field_copy = models.GeneratedField(
expression=Cast("field", models.UUIDField()),
output_field=models.UUIDField(),
db_persist=True,
)
}}}

Comment:

It took me a moment to understand why dropping from 10.6 up to 10.11 but
it seems that's the cadence published by MariaDB.
