The edit to session_utils is because Django 5 no longer supports using unsaved objects in query expressions. The edits to tom_targets/tetss/tests.py are simply a renamed function. Notable features of Django 5 relevant to the TOM Toolkit: * [Database computed defaults](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.0/releases/5.0/#database-computed-default-values) allows generating defaults values from the database, not python. This might come in handy in specific database-heavy areas, like PostGIS or Healpix. * The new [ClosestPoint()](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.0/releases/5.0/#django-contrib-gis) function sounds like it could be helpful in RA/DEC searches, perhaps for non-exact/fuzzy search where only a single result is desired. * Some improvements to [pagination errors](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.0/releases/5.0/#pagination) which might make the HTMX table stuff smoother.
