Bugfixes
========

* Added missing validation for ``UniqueConstraint(nulls_distinct=False)`` when
  using ``*expressions`` (:ticket:`35594`).

  break the admin changelist HTML page when rendering a model instance with a
  ``__html__`` method (:ticket:`35606`).

* Fixed a crash when creating a model with a ``Field.db_default`` and a
  ``Meta.constraints`` constraint composed of ``__endswith``, ``__startswith``,
  or ``__contains`` lookups (:ticket:`35625`).

* Fixed a regression in Django 5.0.7 that caused a crash in
  ``LocaleMiddleware`` when processing a language code over 500 characters
  (:ticket:`35627`).
