The answer that has been given other times people have asked for this is to
write your own authentication backend.  Which is documented here:

This might sound like a lot of work for a minor thing but here is a snippet
that does it:

Caveat: I haven't any experience with this myself, I'm just repeating
pointers I've seen given elsewhere.  It should at least give you a starting
point.
