 Using a custom lookup or transform in a **CheckContraint** make migrate
 command fail.


 {{{

 class MonthLastDay(Transform):
     lookup_name = "month_last_day"
     output_field = DateField()
     template = "(DATE_TRUNC('month', %(expressions)s) + (interval '1 month
 - 1 day'))::date"

 DateField.register_lookup(MonthLastDay)

 class MyModel(models.Model):
     class Meta:
         constraints = [
 CheckConstraint(check=Q(date__month_last_day__gte=F("period_start")),
 name="date_month_end_after_period_start"),
         ]

    date = models.DateField()
    period_start = models.DateField()
 }}}

 django **makemigrations command** does not indicate any issue with this
 and make use of `month_last_day` lookup as if it know about it.

 Migration command for this contraint:
 {{{
 migrations.AddConstraint(
     model_name='projectperiodchargetypetaskmonthbudget',
     constraint=models.CheckConstraint(
         check=models.Q(
             ('date__month_last_day__gte',
 django.db.models.expressions.F('period_start'))
         ),
 name='project_period_charge_type_task_month_budget_month_in_period'),
 ),
 }}}

 django **migrate command** fail indicating that `date__month_last_day`
 join is not possible

 {{{django.core.exceptions.FieldError: Joined field references are not
 permitted in this query}}}

 I'm not sure what could be done. May be the documentation should warn to
 using custom lookup/transform in CheckContraint.
