Integrate django-bcrypt or remove support.

Description

According to:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/topics/auth/passwords/#using-bcrypt-with-django

Django supports bcrypt, but by using a thirdparty called django-bcrypt which itself uses py-bcrypt.

But the thing is, django-bcrypt last supported version is Django 1.4, the package is unmaintained. I submited a pullrequest to add support for custom users (since Django 1.5) but I don't think it'll get any attention, and if it does, future updates aren't guaranteed to keep rolling.

So, I propose to merge django-bcrypt into Django, or just remove its support. If there's interest in doing so, I volunteer to work on it.

Thanks in advance.

Django requires bcrypt, not django-bcrypt. Did you confuse the two? pip install django[bcrypt] installs bcrypt.

Oh, silly me. Yes I did. We can close this now. Sorry for the noise.
