Mentions for models without a `slug` field

Hey,

For now you should be able to set slug = None on your model to prevent inheriting it from MentionableMixin. You will also need to override the resolve_from_url_kwargs classmethod.

e.g.

# models.py
class Article(MentionableMixin, models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=64)
    content = models.TextField()

    slug = None

    def all_text(self) -> str:
        return self.content

    def get_absolute_url(self) -> str:
        return reverse("article", args=[self.pk])

    @classmethod
    def resolve_from_url_kwargs(cls, article_id: int, **url_kwargs) -> "Article":
        return Article.objects.get(pk=article_id)


# urls.py
urlpatterns = [
    path(
        "article/<int:article_id>/",
        ArticleView.as_view(),
        name="article",
        kwargs={
            "model_name": "sample_app.Article",
        },
    ),
]

The slug field will likely be removed from MentionableMixin in the next major release as it is no longer required (since 2.3.0) and only used to provide the default resolve_from_url_kwargs implementation.
