Refs #20936 -- When logging out/ending a session, don't create a new, empty session. Previously, when logging out, the existing session was overwritten by a new sessionid instead of deleting the session altogether. This behavior added overhead by creating a new session record in whichever backend was in use: db, cache, etc. This extra session is unnecessary at the time since no session data is meant to be preserved when explicitly logging out.

This is a security fix.
The documentation in this tree is in plain text files and can be viewed using any text file viewer. It uses ReST (reStructuredText) [1], and the Sphinx documentation system [2]. This allows it to be built into other forms for easier viewing and browsing. To create an HTML version of the docs: * Install Sphinx (using ``sudo pip install Sphinx`` or some other method) * In this docs/ directory, type ``make html`` (or ``make.bat html`` on Windows) at a shell prompt. The documentation in _build/html/index.html can then be viewed in a web browser. [1] http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html [2] http://sphinx-doc.org/
