ldap auth: Reassure django_auth_ldap our auth-failed exceptions are normal.

Browse Source 
The main `authenticate` method in the django_auth_ldap package logs a message
at `exception` level if it passes through an exception it wasn't expecting.
Sensible practice, but we'd been passing through just such an exception for
any kind of routine authentication failure.  After we recently stopped suppressing
an arbitrary subset of loggers with `disable_existing_loggers`, these started
showing up noisily, including in tests.

So, make our exceptions expected.  Just like our own code, the upstream code
raises exceptions of a particular type for routine auth failures, and catches
them and just returns None.  We make our type derive from that one, so as to
just piggyback on that behavior.

Fixes an issue reported in a comment to #6674.
