Support getting None in qs.get()

[Amin Aminian]

The get() method in Queryset class would raise self.model.DoesNotExist exception if no records found for the params.

In cases that we don't want to handle exception and we don't want to use try...except, we use something like this:

qs.filter(...).first()

Which would return None and then there is no need to handle excpetion.

Can't we have it in get method itself ? I mean something like get(raise_exception=False) to return None instead of raising exception.

Thanks for the report, however it was discussed and rejected multiple times, e.g. #2659 or #11352.
