 ArrayField's lookup.py uses the @> operator for __contains, the <@
 operator for __contained_by, and the && operator for __overlap.

 When the field uses CharField (Postgres' varchar()), __contains works, but
 __contained_by and __overlap do not, as Postgres does not define <@ and &&
 operators for an array of varchar[] (it does for text[]).

 __contains works because, in array.py, there is a custom lookup,
 "ArrayOverlap", the outputs a cast to cast the array query value to, say,
 "::varchar(10)[]"

 If there are similar custom lookups for __contained_by and __overlap,
 these then work.
