contrib.auth management commands ignores --database option

[skam <massimo.scamarcia@…>]

I am using multiple database support with a database router to switch the current database to provide different data based on the current request. I need also to separate user tables for each db and create a superuser for it, but createsuperuser management command ignores the "--database" option that I use often with "syncdb" and migration tools such as South:

$ python manage.py createsuperuser --database="test_database"
Usage: manage.py createsuperuser [options] 

Used to create a superuser.

manage.py: error: no such option: --database

Patch to add --database option to both createsuperuser and change password management commands

[Preston Holmes]

did you note that I changed the summary - it would seem beneficial to fix this for both of the auth management commands - including changepassword

However this patch is still good - would you be willing to expand?

[Brian Riley]

I did notice the summary change. The second patch I uploaded covers both createsuperuser and changepassword. The first patch can be ignored.

Moves multi DB tests for createsuperuser to regressiontests

[Brian Riley]

Seems like most multi DB management commands are in regressiontests, so I moved the createsuperuser tests there. This will ensure that they aren't run when you run the tests on your Django project.

Fixed #17327 (again) -- Moved createsuperuser tests added in r17665.

In their new location they won't cause multi-db-related errors when
users run contrib.auh tests together with their application tests.

Thanks brianriley for the patch.
