Description (last modified by Gabriel Amram)

Using the newly introduced query-expression ordering feature in either the model's Meta.ordering or in its ModelAdmin causes errors.

Steps to reproduce:
First variant - using the model's Meta.ordering option - 

//models.py
class Game(models.Model):
    score = models.IntegerField(null=True)

     class Meta:
         ordering = [F("score").desc(nulls_last=True)]
...
// admin.py
admin.site.register(Game)

Accessing the admin site will now give an AttributeError: 'OrderBy' object has no attribute 'startswith'

Variant 2 - Using the ModelAdmin ordering attribute:

//admin.py
class GameAdmin(models.ModelAdmin):
    ordering = [F("score").desc(nulls_last=True)]

runserver fails with error: TypeError: argument of type 'OrderBy' is not iterable

Refs #28958 -- Added a test for ModelAdmin with query expressions in ordering.

This provides additional test coverage but isn't a regression test for
the ticket's issue.
