BaseController: refactor session cookie authentication
Untangle session cookie authentication. If no session cookie is set,
AuthUser constructor will be called with user_id set to None (the
argument default value), and will never raise a UserCreationError. Thus
that case can safely be moved to the end of _determine_auth_user and
outside the try-except block.
If a session cookie *is* set, but we get a UserCreationError, we fall
through to the "no cookie" case, which is also effectively the same
behavior as before. (Not sure what circumstances, if any, can actually
trigger a UserCreationError here, since the user is already logged in
and - presumably - created, plus the user is identified by the Kallithea
database ID, not user name, which would make it difficult to create a
new user... but judging from the existing code, it's possible.)

Debugging Kallithea
===================
If you encounter problems with Kallithea, here are some instructions
on how to debug them.
.. note:: First make sure you're using the latest version available.
Enable detailed debug
---------------------
Kallithea uses the standard Python ``logging`` module to log its output.
By default only loggers with ``INFO`` level are displayed. To enable full output
change ``level = DEBUG`` for all logging handlers in the currently used .ini file.
This change will allow you to see much more detailed output in the log file or
console. This generally helps a lot to track issues.
Enable interactive debug mode
-----------------------------
To enable interactive debug mode simply comment out ``set debug = false`` in
the .ini file. This will trigger an interactive debugger each time
there is an error in the browser, or send a http link if an error occured in the backend. This
is a great tool for fast debugging as you get a handy Python console right
in the web view.
.. warning:: NEVER ENABLE THIS ON PRODUCTION! The interactive console
can be a serious security threat to your system.
