get_profile() may throw AttributeError instead of SiteProfileNotAvailable

[master]

I didn't find a case to fire:
except (ImportError, ImproperlyConfigured)

But some others cases :

In AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE, if:

• you don't provide a '.': 'accountsUserProfile'
  

==> ValueError

• you mispell or forget the app_label part or the model_name part: 'accounts.', 'accXXXounts.UserProfile'
  

No exception is raised and the variable 'model' is returned as None.
==> AttributeError on following line: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '_default_manager'

I needed something similar for my own code, that I wrote as:

try:
    ...
    model = ...
    if not model:
        raise SiteProfileNotAvailable
    ...
except ValueError:
        raise SiteProfileNotAvailable

Throws more SiteProfileNotAvailable, adds some verbosity

Added a patch with tests. The patch adds some more human-friendly errors as well, to be reviewed by a native English speaker.
