 When you make a QuerySet using the `union` method or the `|` operator, the
 QuerySet passed into the `union` method cannot reference `OuterRef` even
 when wrapped with `Subquery`.

 For example:

 {{{
 cls = Document.objects.filter(
     checklist__isnull=False,
     part=OuterRef('id')
 ).values('checklist__customer', 'created')

 ots = Document.objects.filter(
     ownershiptransfer__isnull=False,
     part=OuterRef('id')
 ).values('ownershiptransfer__ship_target__contact', 'created')

 return self.annotate(
     owner=Subquery(cls.union(ots).values('owner')[:1])
 )
 }}}


 Returns this error:

 {{{
 ValueError
 This queryset contains a reference to an outer query and may only be used
 in a subquery.

 }}}

 I get the same error with this statement:

 {{{
 return self.annotate(
     owner=Subquery((cls | ots).values('owner')[:1])
 )

 }}}

 (As an aside, I also get an error when I try to apply an `order_by`
 clause.)
