uid is now base64 encoded in password reset URLs/views. A backwards compatible
password_reset_confirm view/URL will allow password reset links generated before
this change to continue to work. This view will be removed in Django 1.7.
Thanks jonash for the initial patch and claudep for the review.
Those methods were only used by `contrib.admin` internally and exclusively
related to `contrib.auth`. Since they were undocumented but used
in the wild the raised deprecation warning point to an also undocumented
alternative that lives in `contrib.auth`.
Also did some PEP8 and other cleanups in the affected modules.
The _load_library method on BasePasswordHasher turns ImportErrors
into ValueErrors, this masks ImportErrors in the algorithm library.
Changed it to a clearer worded error message that includes
the ImportError string.
This can be used to make Django's test suite significantly faster by
reducing the number of models for which content types and permissions
must be created and tables must be flushed in each non-transactional
test.
It's documented for Django contributors and committers but it's branded
as a private API to preserve our freedom to change it in the future.
Most of the credit goes to Anssi. He got the idea and did the research.
Fixed#20483.
Auth views should be reversed by name, not their locations in
`django.contrib.auth.views`. This allows substituting your own
implementations of the auth views.
normalize_email should be called on the instance, not the class. This
has the same effect normally but is more helpful to subclassers. When
methods are called directly on the class, subclasses can't override
them.
SuspiciousOperations have been differentiated into subclasses, and
are now logged to a 'django.security.*' logger. SuspiciousOperations
that reach django.core.handlers.base.BaseHandler will now return a 400
instead of a 500.
Thanks to tiwoc for the report, and Carl Meyer and Donald Stufft
for review.
This commit also adds tests for the redirect feature of most auth views.
It also cleans up the tests, most notably using @override_settings instead
of ad-hoc setUp/tearDown methods.
Thanks to caumons for the report.

Removing a backend configured in AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS should not
raise an exception for existing sessions, but should make already
logged-in users disconnect.
Thanks Bradley Ayers for the report.
