Removing unique_together creates invalid migration

[Robin Elvin]

I had a model which had a unique_together constraint defined. Now I wish to remove this so the unique_together was removed from the model and a migration created. When applying the migration the following error occurred:

  Applying main.0091_auto_20170316_1046...Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: Found wrong number (0) of constraints for main_projectdrivefile(name, directory_id)

The model's Meta before starting which was subsequently removed prior to creating the migration:

    class Meta:
        unique_together = ('name', 'directory')

The migration created looks like this:

class Migration(migrations.Migration):

    dependencies = [
        ('main', '0090_auto_20170314_1033'),
    ]

    operations = [
        migrations.AlterUniqueTogether(
            name='projectdrivefile',
            unique_together=set([]),
        ),
    ]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a model with a unique_together constraint
2. Create a migration for this model with makemigrations
3. Apply migration
4. Remove unique_together completely
5. Create a migration for this model with makemigrations
6. Apply migration
