This is more of an idea than bug but most of the time when need to use
authentication without using `contrib.auth` one needs to rewrite some of
the parts that can be reused if it were in base_user when the interface is
similar to django.contrib.auth.
I am mostly talking about update_last_login function and AnonymousUser
when custom user is derived from AbstractBaseUser.
May be create AnonymousBaseUser with parts that are compatible to
AbstractBaseUser in `base_user.py` and use that as base class for
AnonymousUser. Also, update_last_login function can be moved to
`base_user.py` so that it can be reused.
