Fixed #16833 -- Removed undocumented `mixin` parameter from the
`Storage.open()` method as this was an undocumented and obscure feature. Thanks
to Marty and Russell for sanity-checking.

+``django.core.files.storage.Storage.open``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The ``open`` method of the base Storage class took an obscure parameter
+``mixin`` which allowed to dynamically change the base classes of the
+returned file object. In the rare case you relied on the `mixin` parameter,
+you can easily achieve the same by overriding the `open` method, e.g.::
+
+ from django.core.files import File
+ from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage
+
+ class Spam(File):
+ """
+ Spam, spam, spam, spam and spam.
