* Prevented stale session files from being loaded
* Added removal of stale session files in django-admin.py clearsessions
Thanks ej for the report, crodjer and Elvard for their inputs.
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under
Python 2 for backwards compatibility).
* Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes.
* Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3
and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible).
Thus smart_str always returns a str objects.
* Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3
want a str.
This also removes the implicit initialization of the session key on the first access in favor of explicit initialization.

because some configurations of MySQL (with utf8_bin collation) will return
bytestring, rather than unicode data, which was causing problems previously.

This only affected the database backend, but I've applied the same fix to all
three backends for robustness.

incompatible for custom session backends.
Whilst we were in the neighbourhood, use a larger range of session key values
to save a small amount of time and use the hardware-base random numbers where
available (transparently falls back to pseudo-RNG otherwise).
