 Migrations run the migration and record that the migration was applied in
 a different transaction. This results in a broken/inconsistent database
 when an error or crash happens between those two steps. This is not purely
 theoretical, it has happened to me.

 The executor needs to call migration.apply and record_applied in the same
 transaction, and then the django_migrations table can't get out of sync
 with the migrations that have actually been applied. I think this could be
 done by moving the call to record_applied inside the schema_editor context
 manager block.
