 Let's say I have a Django model with a `JSONField`:

 {{{
 class Event(models.Model):
     data = models.JSONField()
 }}}


 And I create the following objects:

 {{{
 event1 = Event.objects.create(data={"key": None})
 event2 = Event.objects.create(data={"key": "null"})
 }}}

 In Django 3.2.13, the following queries return some results:

 {{{
 Event.objects.filter(data__key=Value("null"))
 # [event1]

 Event.objects.filter(data__key="null")
 # [event2]
 }}}

 In Django 4.0.5, the same queries return different results:

 {{{
 Event.objects.filter(data__key=Value("null"))
 # [event1, event2]

 Event.objects.filter(data__key="null")
 # [event1, event2]
 }}}

 The [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/topics/db/queries/#querying-
 jsonfield Django docs] aren't clear which results are correct. I would
 lean towards the v3 results.

 I'm happy to work on a patch if people think this is a bug in v4.
