Admin change_list logs multiple "VariableDoesNotExist" errors.

[Samuel Bishop]

By default the Django admin list view logs multiple errors while working normally. This is somewhat undesirable since errors and tracebacks do not typically accompany correct and expected behaviour.

Simply silencing all 'debug' template errors is less than ideal since it hides other possible errors we want to be informed about.
If the error were shorter, perhaps not including the traceback, that may be enough to improve the situation.
Basically, I don't expect the well tested and maintained admin templates to emit a wall of errors that is more reminiscent of the entire world being on fire due to horribly buggy code I have written.

This is the same issue that is behind #26886, just in a different template. If there is no way to solve these at the template code level, its probably fair to close this ticket as a duplicate of a new ticket for the underlying problem that needs solving to make this less of an issue.

This is the large amount of error text accompanying debug logging when loading any admin list view.
