There are other alternative unique identifiers can be used in DB objects.
UUID is not exactly new but can be used. Other alternative ones are `cuid`
and `nanoid`.

Current implementation of `django.db.models.fields.AutoField` is being
extended from `IntegerField`.
I tried to create another Base AutoField that is extending from
`CharField` but there is a guard that checks if custom AutoField is being
extended from `AutoField` or not.

I do not have a clear idea to accomplish this.
