Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a form with at least one *HiddenInput* form field.
2. Override a method such as `as_p()` by calling `_html_output()` with:
a. A `normal_row` parameter containing the string "%(field_name)s"
b. A `row_ender` parameter which is *not* the last tag in `normal_row`
3. Attempt to render the form. This will result in a builtins.KeyError:
'field_name' message.
Under these conditions, BaseForm._html_output() attempts to create a new
row to hold the hidden input fields. When it does, it uses `normal_row %
{..}`, but the dictionary does not have the field "field_name" in it. This
causes a KeyError. On the other hand, if `normal_row` ends in a
`row_ender` tag, it doesn't create a new row, and the method succeeds.
