Fixed #14881 -- Modified password reset to work with a non-integer UserModel.pk.
uid is now base64 encoded in password reset URLs/views. A backwards compatible
password_reset_confirm view/URL will allow password reset links generated before
this change to continue to work. This view will be removed in Django 1.7.
Thanks jonash for the initial patch and claudep for the review.
