Earlier in the RB7 dev process, I reimplemented the basic functionality
that we needed from django-multiselectfield for a new field in djblets.
This allowed us to resolve runtime issues with multiselectfield and
django 4.0. Unfortunately, there was a problem lurking with
django-evolution signatures, which I didn't notice because I had a
hacked version of multiselectfield installed into my virtualenv.

I've addressed this with a change in django-evolution that adds a
RENAMED_FIELD_TYPES config that can map the module paths from old to
new fields. This allows the django-evolution signature code to import
the field.

Was able to run manage.py evolve --hint and load extensions without
seeing ModuleImportErrors coming from deep inside django-evolution.
