auth: also use safe password hashing on Windows using bcrypt
For unknown reasons, Kallithea used different hashing algorithms on Windows and
Posix. Perhaps because problems with bcrypt on Windows in the past. That should
no longer be an issue, and it doesn't make sense to have different security
properties on the platforms.
While changing to bcrypt everywhere, also remain backwards compatible and
accept existing passwords hashed with sha256 - both on Windows (where it used
to be used), and elsewhere (in case a system has been migrated from Windows to
Unix).

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================
Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.
The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.
When Celery is disabled:
On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.
Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
updating its statistics cache.
When Celery is enabled:
On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
task.
