 PostgreSQL 9.5 introduced `cube`, `grouping sets` and `rollup`.
 MySQL/MariaDB supports the `rollup`-operation for aggregations. Oracle
 (obviously) also supports `rollup`, `grouping sets` and `cube`. I suggest
 adding methods in `QuerySet` for this, feature-flags to indicate level of
 support, and either new expressions for the different `rollup`-syntax, or
 amend the operations of the backends for this. The syntax is slightly
 different in MySQL/MariaDB, as it uses `WITH ROLLUP`, rather than
 `ROLLUP`.
