 Hello,
 I have found an issue with the documentation and/or the behaivor of the
 postgis extension create method.

 **Background**
 I am trying to migrate my app that uses the postgis extension inside a
 docker container. I do create the extension beforehand as superuser since
 I dont intend to run the database connection as a postgres superuser.

 **Problem**
 As per the documentation found here:
 https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/gis/install/postgis/


 I find it confusing that the documentation states "The command is run
 during the migrate process." and "An alternative is to use a migration
 operation in your project:". Because what seems to be the problem is that
 even if you remove the create extension statement from the migration file,
 it still runs regardless - rendering the option to put the create
 extension statement inside the migration file somewhat redundant and
 probably not very useful.

 **Possible solution**
 Ideally the behaivor would be only create extension if its in a migration
 file and if its not - its the users concern to create it however it see
 fit.

 The relevant part is this:
