 Exists() feature, implemented in #27149 ticket, not working properly on
 postgres backend.
 This happens only in complex queries, where django has to use table
 aliases.
 Consider the following models:
 {{{
 class Foo(models.Model):
     spam1 = models.ForeignKey('Spam', on_delete=models.CASCADE,
 related_name='+')
     spam2 = models.ForeignKey('Spam', on_delete=models.CASCADE,
 related_name='+')


 class Bar(models.Model):
     name1 = models.CharField(max_length=200)
     name2 = models.CharField(max_length=200)


 class Spam(models.Model):
     name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
 }}}

 And the code:
 {{{
 bars = models.Bar.objects.filter(
         name1=OuterRef('spam1__name'),
         name2=OuterRef('spam2__name'))

 qs = models.Foo.objects.annotate(bars=Exists(bars))
 qs = qs.filter(bars=True)
 }}}
 This SQL generated using {{{django.db.backends.postgresql}}} backend:
 {{{
 SELECT
     "demo_foo"."id", "demo_foo"."spam1_id",
     "demo_foo"."spam2_id",
     EXISTS(
         SELECT U0."id", U0."name1", U0."name2"
           FROM "demo_bar" U0
          WHERE (U0."name2" = ("demo_spam"."name") AND U0."name1" =
 ("T3"."name"))) AS "bars"
   FROM "demo_foo"
 INNER JOIN "demo_spam" ON ("demo_foo"."spam2_id" = "demo_spam"."id")
 INNER JOIN "demo_spam" T3 ON ("demo_foo"."spam1_id" = T3."id")
 WHERE EXISTS(
     SELECT U0."id", U0."name1", U0."name2"
       FROM "demo_bar" U0
      WHERE (U0."name2" = ("demo_spam"."name") AND U0."name1" =
 ("T3"."name"))) = True
 }}}
 which ends up with this error:
 {{{
 django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: missing FROM-clause entry for table "T3"
 LINE 1: ...."name1" = ("demo_spam"."name") AND U0."name2" = ("T3"."name...
                                                              ^
 }}}

 This happens because of quotes around {{{T3}}}.

 SQL works as expected, if you remove these quotas and execute it manually.
