#25419: Management commands: allow to set exit code, without calling sys.exit
--------------------------------------------+--------------------
     Reporter:  blueyed                     |      Owner:  nobody
         Type:  New feature                 |     Status:  new
    Component:  Core (Management commands)  |    Version:  master
     Severity:  Normal                      |   Keywords:
 Triage Stage:  Unreviewed                  |  Has patch:  0

 With a Command like the following, it would be nice to be able to specify
 the exit code in case of errors:

 {{{
 class Command(LabelCommand):
     def handle_label(self, username, **options):
         try:
             user = User.objects.get(username=username)
         except User.DoesNotExist:
             self.stderr.write("{}: user not found,
 skipping.".format(username))
             self.exitcode = 5
             return
         result = do_something()
         self.stdout.write("{}: {}".format(username, result))
 }}}

 While you could call `sys.exit(5)` directly in this case, the use case
 would be to handle all existing users from the labels, but exit non-zero
 in case of any errors.

 I could imagine having `exitcode = 0` on the `BaseCommand` class and then
 use this in the end with `sys.exit()`.
