 Considering a simple `Company` model with four fields: `id`, `name`,
 `trade_number` and `country`. If we evaluate a queryset containing a
 `.defer()` following a `.only()`, the generated sql query selects
 unexpected fields. For example:

 {{{#!python
 Company.objects.only("name").defer("name")
 }}}
 loads all the fields with the following query:
 {{{#!sql
 SELECT "company"."id", "company"."name", "company"."trade_number",
 "company"."country" FROM "company"
 }}}

 and

 {{{#!python
 Company.objects.only("name").defer("name").defer("country")
 }}}
 also loads all the fields with the same query:
 {{{#!sql
 SELECT "company"."id", "company"."name", "company"."trade_number",
 "company"."country" FROM "company"
 }}}

 In those two cases, i would expect the sql query to be:
 {{{#!sql
 SELECT "company"."id" FROM "company"
 }}}

 In the following example, we get the expected behavior:
 {{{#!python
 Company.objects.only("name", "country").defer("name")
 }}}
 only loads "id" and "country" fields with the following query:
 {{{#!sql
 SELECT "company"."id", "company"."country" FROM "company"
 }}}
