target of :paramref:`.relationship.secondary` for the purposes
of creating very complex :func:`.relationship` join conditions.
The change includes adjustments to query joining, joined eager loading
to not render a SELECT subquery, changes to lazy loading such that
the "secondary" target is properly included in the SELECT, and
changes to declarative to better support specification of a
join() object with classes as targets.

select/alias on the base, where the PK columns were also not same
named; the persistence system would fail to copy primary key values
from the base table to the inherited table upon INSERT.

:func:`.validates` function; when set to False, a validation event
will not be triggered if the event was initated as a backref to
an attribute operation from the other side. [ticket:1535]

version id programmatically outside of the generator.   using this system,
we can also leave the version id alone.

to rely upon server generated version identifiers, using triggers
or other database-provided versioning features, by passing the value
``False``.  The ORM will use RETURNING when available to immediately
load the new version identifier, else it will emit a second SELECT.
[ticket:2793]
- The ``eager_defaults`` flag of :class:`.Mapper` will now allow the
newly generated default values to be fetched using an inline
RETURNING clause, rather than a second SELECT statement, for backends
that support RETURNING.
- Added a new variant to :meth:`.ValuesBase.returning` called
:meth:`.ValuesBase.return_defaults`; this allows arbitrary columns
to be added to the RETURNING clause of the statement without interfering
with the compilers usual "implicit returning" feature, which is used to
efficiently fetch newly generated primary key values.  For supporting
backends, a dictionary of all fetched values is present at
:attr:`.ResultProxy.returned_defaults`.
- add a glossary entry for RETURNING
- add documentation for version id generation, [ticket:867]
