#26445: Can't set password on User during migration that depends on contrib.auth

---------------------------------+--------------------
I have an app with migrations that depend on the `contrib.auth`
migrations. In one of my own migrations I want to create User objects and
set their password. When trying to set a password for User object either
through `.set_password()` or directly on creation through e.g.
`.create_superuser()` I get this error:
{{{
AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'set_password'
}}}
Attached is a test project. Create a virtual env with Django 1.9 and run
`./manage.py migrate` in it to see the error.
It seems like the password related methods are not available on the User
object, only in the default manager, which I gather is not available in
migrations. Is this intentional?
