We have `AutoField` and `BigAutoField` that mirror `IntegerField` and
`BigIntegerField`, but there is no `SmallAutoField` for
`SmallIntegerField`.
It can be useful to have an auto-incrementing 16-bit integer field for
infrequently updated tables that contain a list of choices, e.g.
countries, for systems where limited disk space/memory is available.
(In part this was also a test for the changes in #29979.)

Comment (by Carlton Gibson):
Wondering if this is sufficiently useful to be part of core? (It seems a
bit niche.) Seems like the sort of thing we often recommend putting in the
third-party field (and package).

Comment:
I'm going to accept this based on Anssi's comments
([https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14286#comment:9 comment:9] and
[https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/18201#comment:1 comment:1]). I
think it's worth to add this for consistency and "small" optimization.
