ORM attributes can now be assigned any object that is has a
``__clause_element__()`` attribute, which will result in inline
SQL the way any :class:`.ClauseElement` class does. This covers other
mapped attributes not otherwise transformed by further expression
constructs.
As part of this, it was considered that we could add
__clause_element__() to ClauseElement, however this causes endless loops
in a "while" pattern and this pattern has been identified in third
party libraries. Add a test to ensure we never make that change.

Fixes: #3802
become an externally usable package but still remains within the main sqlalchemy parent package.
in this system, we use kind of an ugly hack to get the noseplugin imported outside of the
"sqlalchemy" package, while still making it available within sqlalchemy for usage by
third party libraries.
