Fixed #32983 -- Added system check for redundant related_name on symmetrical M2M fields.
Since ManyToManyFields defined with `symmetrical=True` do not add a
related field to the target model, including a `related_name` argument
will never do what the coder likely expects. This makes including
a related_name with a symmetrical model raise a system check warning.
