This commit changes the default SESSION_ENGINE to the cached sessions and the default cached backend to memcached. The cached sessions with memcahced is our current recommendation, but we do not use it in our default settings and do not test it in our CI (horizon-dsvm-tempest-plugin). It is better to use the recommended configurations in our CI. The previous default SESSION_ENGINE, the signed cookies, has a limitation on the length o cookies and using keystone3 can hit this easily. It is not ready for production for most cases. For a cache backend, considering multi-process web server deployments, memcahced is recommended rather than a local memory backend. Note for developers: If you use "tox -e runserver" for developments, SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.cache' might not work expectedly. From my testing, I was forced to log-in frequently when moving pages. If you hit this, my suggestion is to configure SESSION_ENGINE to django.contrib.sessions.backends.signed_cookies.
