------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 This is a fix for a couple of issues with cookie sharing with bbPress.

 First, an enhancement which allows the COOKIEHASH to be set in wp-
 config.php

 Second, some rearrangement of the current KEYs and SALTs in wp-config.php
 to deprecate use of SECRET_KEY and SECRET_SALT in favour of the direct
 replacements AUTH_KEY and AUTH_SALT

 Third, a removal of the change made in [1348] for #670 which might have
 worked once but is now faulty logic for generatin of the cookie hashes.

 These changes have implications for the release of BuddyPress and bbPress.
