[1.9.x] Refs #19353 -- Added tests for using custom user models with built-in auth forms.

Also updated topics/auth/customizing.txt to reflect that subclasses of
UserCreationForm and UserChangeForm can be used with custom user models.

Thanks Baptiste Mispelon for the initial documentation.

Backport of f0425c72601f466c6a71518749c6d15b94945514 from master
