Description
While researching some code for another ticket I noticed noticed that the contrib.admin and contrib.auth checks modules have a very similar, but slightly different, bits of code:
_contains_subclass and _subclass_index.
It took some careful reading, but they behave exactly the same, apart from one returning an index and the other a boolean.
I have a contribution that change these implementations, with the intent to make it easier to follow the flow.
I tried to find a place in the Django codebase to have a shared implementation, but I haven't been able to identify one. It would be nice to have a canonical implementation of these functions.
