Comment (by Shai Berger):
If we're ready to accept the current situation -- where `inspectdb`
produces output which cannot be used without changes, until #14094 is
fixed -- then I think we can define the expected behavior as producing a
`CharField` with `max_length=None` or no `max_length` at all. Leaving this
open may have some value then: I suspect that, when taken on its own, this
is an "easy pickings" ticket, and there's little motivation for
experienced contributors to fix it.
