tests: prepare for adding CSRF protection on login forms

CSRF is about avoiding abuse of credentials by doing things in existing
sessions. The login form does not have any previous credentials, so there is
nothing to abuse and no real need for CSRF protection. But there is still an
unauth session, so we *can* have CSRF protection.

CSRF protection is currently in LoginRequired (which obviously isn't
applied to the login form), but let's prepare for changing that.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
