Created based on discussion in https://forum.djangoproject.com/t
/removefield-dropping-views-without-notice/31409

Arguments:
* Consistency acrocss backends. Cascade is used for postgres backend only.
* Cascade is no more needed as constraints and sequences are dropped
explicitly. Next, sequences are being replaced by new identity columns.
* No side effects - unexpected removals in DB schema.
* Test suite is passing after cascade removal.

Marking as "needs tests" as we either should write a test or have a
