auth: don't break hashing in case of user with empty password. In some cases such as LDAP user created via external scripts users might set the passwords to empty. The hashing uses the md5(password_hash) to store reference to detect password changes and forbid using the same password. In case of pure LDAP users this is not valid, and we shouldn't raise Errors in such case. This change makes it work for empty passwords now.

Increase User Session Performance
---------------------------------
The default file-based sessions are only suitable for smaller setups, or
instances that doesn't have a lot of users or traffic.
They are set as default option because it's setup-free solution.
The most common issue of file based sessions are file limit errors which occur
if there are lots of session files.
Therefore, in a large scale deployment, to give better performance,
scalability, and maintainability we recommend switching from file-based
sessions to database-based user sessions or memcached sessions.
To switch to database-based user sessions uncomment the following section in
your :file:`/home/{user}/.rccontrol/{instance-id}/rhodecode.ini` file.
.. code-block:: ini
## db based session, fast, and allows easy management over logged in users
beaker.session.type = ext:database
beaker.session.table_name = db_session
# use just one of the following accoring to the type of database
beaker.session.sa.url = postgresql://postgres:secret@localhost/rhodecode
beaker.session.sa.url = mysql://root:secret@127.0.0.1/rhodecode
beaker.session.sa.pool_recycle = 3600
beaker.session.sa.echo = false
and make sure you comment out the file based sessions.
.. code-block:: ini
## types are file, ext:memcached, ext:database, and memory (default).
#beaker.session.type = file
#beaker.session.data_dir = %(here)s/data/sessions/data
To switch to memcached-based user sessions uncomment the following section in
your :file:`/home/{user}/.rccontrol/{instance-id}/rhodecode.ini` file.
.. code-block:: ini
## memcached sessions
beaker.session.type = ext:memcached
beaker.session.url = localhost:11211
and make sure you comment out the file based sessions.
.. code-block:: ini
## types are file, ext:memcached, ext:database, and memory (default).
#beaker.session.type = file
#beaker.session.data_dir = %(here)s/data/sessions/data
