has a
foreign key to a custom User model

I've created a reproducer app:
https://github.com/jaypoulz/rmigration_bug
After installing dependencies, run the repro.sh script:
https://github.com/jaypoulz/rmigration_bug/blob/main/repro.sh
All this script does is clear the db, run the initial migrations (which
will fail because no user exists yet), create a dummy super user, re-run
the migration so that it completes, and then run a reverse migration.
Object A has 2 ForeignKeys - the customer User and object B.
Object B is not important, but must exist in order to trigger the mismatch
in 'Fake' model comparison during the delete call.
https://github.com/jaypoulz/rmigration_bug/blob/main/rmigrate/migrations/0002_create_sample_objects.py#L15
{{{
ValueError: Cannot query "A object (1)": Must be "A" instance.
}}}
This appears to be because delete first checks if any B instances need to
be deleted (since it's a CASCADE on delete relationship).
Even though there are no instances of B, A cannot be deleted because the
model type returned by A via model lookup is not the same as the model
referenced by B.
For some reason, this only occurs when you have a custom User model.
