Description
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.
