 When we use get_object_or_404() method to query an object, sometimes due
 to invalid inputs it will through exceptions. Instead can it raise 404
 directly?
 Ex:

 Models:
 >>class Test1(models.Model):
 >>    c2 = models.CharField(max_length=10)

 >>class Test2(models.Model):
 >>    c1 = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4)
 >>    c2 = models.CharField(max_length=10)

 query:
 1. Below statement raises valueError:
     >> get_object_or_404(Test1, pk='test')
     >> - invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'test'

 2. Below statement raises ValidationError:
     >> get_object_or_404(Test2, pk="test")
     >> - 'test' is not a valid UUID.

 So this method will throw diffrent exceptions in diffenrent scenario. So
 would it be possible to raise 404 exceptions even if it finds invalid
 values.
