The old architecture used exceptions in the signal handler
which prevented transactions from running smoothly
and signal handlers from running after Axes handlers.
The new architecture changes the request approach to request flagging
and moves the exception handling into the middleware call method.
This allows users to more flexibly run their own signal handlers
and optionally use the Axes middleware if they want to do so.

Most of our users are already running on Python 3.6+
and dropping 3.5 and below in a future oriented release
allows us to focus on implementing more readable codebases.

In order to offer backwards compatible import path for the
axes.utils.reset function it has to have a separate
implementation that can be imported independently from
the axes.helpers functions that are used by the
AxesBaseHandler implementation.

- Define a base handler API with method signatures
- Move proxy handler to a separate path for importability
- Implement a database handler with clean external dependencies
- Change the authentication backend and decorators to use the authentication backend
This enables clean pluggable authentication backend definitions that users
can override and specialize with e.g. cached handlers in their own packages.

Clean up internal implementations and tests while keeping the
APIs as similar as possible where feasible.
The goal of this change is to not change any documented
or stable APIs that might be in use by users, but to improve
the internal implementations for maintainability and usability.

Revert some of the PR changes to tests to make sure that all of the
old format function invocations work with the old and new tests.
Implement small enchancements to documentation and credentials resolving
for usability and flexibility with custom authentication backends.
Update documentation to indicate that backwards compatibility
is supported as well as the new format credentials invocations.
