didn't implement ``__slots__``, and therefore meant all subclasses
of that class didn't either, negating the rationale for ``__slots__``
to be in use.  Didn't cause any issue except on IronPython
which apparently does not implement ``__slots__`` behavior compatibly
with cPython.

if the name of the attribute being accessed is non-specific,
thereby avoiding collisions on names like items, values, keys.
fixes #3475

``__eq__()`` to return a non-boolean-capable object, such as
some geoalchemy types as well as numpy types, were being tested
for ``bool()`` during a unit of work update operation, where in
0.9 the return value of ``__eq__()`` was tested against "is True"
to guard against this.
fixes #3469

correctly if it were loaded within the "optimized inheritance load",
which is a special SELECT emitted in the case of joined table
inheritance used to populate expired or unloaded attributes against
a joined table without loading the base table.  This is related to
the fact that SQLA 1.0 no longer guesses about loading deferred
columns and must be directed explicitly.
fixes #3468

mapped attribute on top of an :func:`.aliased` object would
resolve to the original mapper, not the :func:`.aliased`
version of it, thereby causing problems for a :class:`.Query`
that relies on this attribute (e.g. it's the only representative
attribute given in the constructor) to figure out the correct FROM
clause for the query.
fixes #3466
- apply consitency to ._parententity vs.
__clause_element__()._annotations['parententity']
in terms of aliased class, test it all.

feature would cause an object's version counter to be incremented
when there was no net change to the object's row, but instead an object
related to it via relationship (e.g. typically many-to-one)
were associated or de-associated with it, resulting in an UPDATE
statement that updates the object's version counter and nothing else.
In the use case where the relatively recent "server side" and/or
"programmatic/conditional" version counter feature were used
(e.g. setting version_id_generator to False), the bug could cause an
UPDATE without a valid SET clause to be emitted.
fixes #3465

joins of :ticket:`3222` takes place inappropriately
for a JOIN along explicit join criteria with a single-inheritance
subclass that does not make use of any discriminator, resulting
in an additional "AND NULL" clause.
