Added RANDOM as dummy field for random order in queries

[adapar]

I recently needed to use a random ordering of query results. To avoid the call to databaseColumn with a non-existing field I added a special case for using RANDOM as a field name and adding the RANDOM() call to the query.

I am not against adding random ordering but I would prefer if we adhere to Django's conventions whenever possible.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/models/querysets/#order-by

Django uses a question mark to denote random ordering, could you do the same please?

Also can you please add a unit test and mention this special column name in the docs for order_by?

Ok, no problem.
