QuerySet.defer does not work properly on Oracle

[Jani Tiainen]

The machinery in OracleQuery.resolve_columns does not take into account any fields that are deferred. Seeing this error depends on the order of the fields, and how they are handled by OracleQuery.convert_values -- which is probably why it's missed in the test suite. Here's an example model that demonstrates the problem:

from django.db import models

class MyModel(models.Model):
     num = models.FloatField()
     name = models.CharField(max_length=128)

Here's how to raise it:

>>> MyModel.objects.create(num=5.0, name='Foobar')
<MyModel: MyModel object>
>>> qs = MyModel.objects.defer('num')
>>> print qs

    value = float(value)
ValueError: invalid literal for float(): Foobar

The problem reveals itself here because although we've deferred the FloatField, it's instance is still passed into convert_values with the value associated with the CharField.

This problem only affects the Oracle spatial backend.

The problem is not GeoDjango related at all, and applies to the entire Oracle backend.
