Description
fix: Use a "through" model for the ManyToManyField fields in CourseSection and CourseSectionSequence to ensure that cascading deletes will occur to delete the relation upon deletion of a foreign-keyed object.
This commit is phase 3 of 4 in order to ensure a smooth deploy. The phases:
separate models, and start writing to those fields as well. (COMPLETE)
model fields backed by the separate through models and stop writing to the original
ManyToManyField field. (COMPLETE)
as the old fields, so
new_user_partition_groups->user_partition_groups.This PR is designed to be able to easily be rolled-back if anything goes wrong.
