#17656: collectstatic should not require a database

-------------------------------------+--------------------
The collectstatic command, like all management commands, gets a call to
self.validate() which requires a database to be up and running. This is
annoying, because this command has no need for the database at all, and
may well be run during packaging/deployment where a database may not be
present.
Although hypothetically the STATICFILES_STORAGE setting could refer to
something that stores static files in a database, the behaviour should be
made more convenient for the default.
