Description
Our service listens for the user_logged_in signal to log the user's IP information, but when using TestClient.login/force_login, the absence of REMOTE_ADDR results in an error.
By reviewing the source code, I found that TestClient.login/force_login(https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/test/client.py#L869-L882) creates an empty HttpRequest, which behaves differently from django.test.client.Client.request(https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/test/client.py#L401-L436).
Therefore, I believe this is an issue that needs to be addressed.
