#22874: Need a way to declare a dependency for AUTH_USER_MODEL.

----------------------------+------------------------
Right now, it's impossible to declare a dependency to/from
AUTH_USER_MODEL.
Here's the error I'm getting:
{{{
ValueError: Lookup failed for model referenced by field
feedback.FeedbackItem.user: brambling.Person
}}}
This is bad on two fronts:
1. From the "brambling" side - the side declaring/using an AUTH_USER_MODEL
- I can't use the "feedback" module because it doesn't declare a
dependency on my model - and django doesn't currently support reverse
dependencies (unless they're undocumented.)
2. From the "feedback" side - the side with migrations and a swappable FK
- the app can't be used by anyone who actually has a swappable model,
because there's no way to declare a correct migration dependency.
I feel like the correct fix here would be to have a 'swappable
dependency'.
This is on stable/1.7.x
