Comment (by Jon Moroney):
To circle back on this and to document the state of things for future
readers. The current PR here
https://github.com/django/django/pull/12553
Changes the measure of salt from characters to bits and from ~71 bits to
128 bits.
The PR is ready but is hinging on the question of updating prior database
entries which have a smaller salt than the 128bit value.
