- assert passive_deletes='all' does not affect collection/scalar

membership removal

in issue #3844 we hypotheized that passive_deletes='all' was broken
because it sets to NULL a foreign key attribute when the child
object is removed or replaced.   However, not doing the NULL
set means that nothing happens at all and the operation silently
fails.
