Fixed #24704 -- Made the autoreloader survive SyntaxErrors.
With this change, it's expected to survive anything except errors that make it impossible to import the settings. It's too complex to fallback to a sensible behavior with a broken settings module. Harcoding things about runserver in ManagementUtility.execute is atrocious but it's the only way out of the chicken'n'egg problem: the current implementation of the autoreloader primarily watches imported Python modules -- and then a few other things that were bolted on top of this design -- but we want it to kick in even if the project contains import-time errors and django.setup() fails. At some point we should throw away this code and replace it by an off-the-shelf autoreloader that watches the working directory and re-runs `django-admin runserver` whenever something changes.
