size of the many per-column objects we're hitting, but somehow the overall memory is
hardly being reduced at all in initial testing

a type that was also a :class:`.TypeDecorator` would fail with
Python's "Cannot create a consistent method resolution order (MRO)"
error, when any kind of SQL comparison expression were used against
an object using this type.

return type is not strictly assumed to be boolean; it now
returns a :class:`.Boolean` subclass called :class:`.MatchType`.
The type will still produce boolean behavior when used in Python
expressions, however the dialect can override its behavior at
result time.  In the case of MySQL, while the MATCH operator
is typically used in a boolean context within an expression,
if one actually queries for the value of a match expression, a
floating point value is returned; this value is not compatible
with SQLAlchemy's C-based boolean processor, so MySQL's result-set
behavior now follows that of the :class:`.Float` type.
A new operator object ``notmatch_op`` is also added to better allow
dialects to define the negation of a match operation.
fixes #3263

of the "constants" :func:`.null`, :func:`.true`, and :func:`.false`
has been reverted.   These functions returning a "singleton" object
had the effect that different instances would be treated as the
same regardless of lexical use, which in particular would impact
the rendering of the columns clause of a SELECT statement.
fixes #3170

- apply autopep8 + manual fixes to most of test/sql/

system, whereby using a :class:`.TypeDecorator` in conjunction with
variant would fail with an MRO error when a comparison operator was used.
fixes #3102

:meth:`.Operators.__or__` and :meth:`.Operators.__invert__`
operator overload methods could not be overridden within a custom
:class:`.TypeEngine.Comparator` implementation.
fixes #3012

the new rules for "where" and "having" woudn't take effect for the
"whereclause" and "having" kw arguments of the :func:`.select` construct,
which is also what :class:`.Query` uses so wasn't working in the
ORM either. fixes #3013 re: #2804

renders "BETWEEN SYMMETRIC".  Also added a new negation operator
"notbetween_op", which now allows an expression like ``~col.between(x, y)``
to render as "col NOT BETWEEN x AND y", rather than a parentheiszed NOT
string.  fixes #2990

the first SQL expression would be applied as the "comparison type"
to a compared tuple value; this has the effect in some cases of an
inappropriate "type coersion" occurring, such as when a tuple that
has a mix of String and Binary values improperly coerces target
values to Binary even though that's not what they are on the left
side.  :func:`.tuple_` now expects heterogeneous types within its
list of values.
