I support the idea of allowing the tests to pass on different backends than the core backends.

I am not sure if checking the connection vendor is the right thing to do. Usually we use some connection.ops.sql_for_string_len(), but as this is used just in testing, that does seem wrong approach, too.

How about using something else than LEN() there? It doesn't seem to matter what function is used in there (in fact, you don't need any function in there, right?). So, just get rid of the LEN() call altogether.

Fixed #18317 -- Removed db specific raw SQL function from tests

A test in model_fields used LEN() in raw SQL. This function is not
available on some 3rd party backends. I removed this function and
ensured that the test works correctly (breaks pre e9bbdb39de) with
the change.
