target :class:`.Column` has been reworked to be as
immediate as possible, based on the moment that the
target :class:`.Column` is associated with the same
:class:`.MetaData` as this :class:`.ForeignKey`, rather
than waiting for the first time a join is constructed,
or similar. This along with other improvements allows
earlier detection of some foreign key configuration
issues.  Also included here is a rework of the
type-propagation system, so that
it should be reliable now to set the type as ``None``
on any :class:`.Column` that refers to another via
:class:`.ForeignKey` - the type will be copied from the
target column as soon as that other column is associated,
and now works for composite foreign keys as well.

called :attr:`.TypeDecorator.coerce_to_is_types`,
to make it easier to control how comparisons using
``==`` or ``!=`` to ``None`` and boolean types goes
about producing an ``IS`` expression, or a plain
equality expression with a bound parameter.
