 `makemigrations` gives out 'No changes detected' for changes on a sub-
 subclass of CharField (only tested with this field).

 When creating a field as seen below (DummyCharField), a new migration only
 gets created if `kwargs['max_length'] = 255` is wrapped inside an `if`.

 {{{#!python
 class BaseDummyCharField(models.CharField):
     def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
         if 'max_length' not in kwargs:
             kwargs['max_length'] = 64
         super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)


 class DummyCharField(BaseDummyCharField):
     def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
         # Without the if 'makemigrations' does not recognize changes.
         # Previous max_length (in initial migration) is 64.
         if 'max_length' not in kwargs:
             kwargs['max_length'] = 255
         super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)


 class DummyModel(models.Model):
     dummy = DummyCharField()
 }}}

 (Also reproducable in version 2.0.6, maybe others as well.)
