Comment:

 [https://github.com/wrwrwr/django/compare/ticket_23682 Proposed changes]:
 * defined a new `CircularRedirectError`;
 * changed the loop detection to throw the exception on repeated URLs and
 chains longer than 20;
 * added a "redirect to self" test with a changing query argument.

 Could all the loop prevention tests maybe live in `test_client` rather
 than `test_client_regress`?
