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.

Change and Deprecation
======================
API deprecation is documented in the section :ref:`deprecated` together with
other notes about deprecated parts of the application.
Deprecated API calls
--------------------
- Make sure to add them into the section :ref:`deprecated`.
- Use `deprecated` inside of the call docstring to make our users aware of the
deprecation::
.. deprecated:: 1.2.3
Use `new_call_name` instead to fetch this information.
- Make sure to log on level `logging.WARNING` a message that the API call or
specific parameters are deprecated.
- If possible return deprecation information inside of the result from the API
call. Use the attribute `_warning_` to contain a message.
Changed API calls
-----------------
- If the change is significant, consider to use `versionchanged` in the
docstring::
.. versionchanged:: 1.2.3
Optional explanation if reasonable.
Added API calls
---------------
- Use `versionadded` to document since which version this API call is
available::
.. versionadded:: 1.2.3
Optional explanation if reasonable.
