AttributeError: 'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'user'

[amplifi]

Steps to reproduce the error

Without logging in, attempt to load a platform URL for creation, such as:

https://platform-staging.cadasta.org/organizations/allthethings/projects/quiet-car/records/locations/new

Also applies to /delete, /edit

Edit: Same error occurs with or without active user session, if trailing slash is not appended to URL

Actual behavior

Unhandled Django exception causes a 500 error in uWSGI. See https://opbeat.com/cadasta/platform-staging/errors/209/ for trace.

Expected behavior

Redirect to sign in page.

As this is also preventing downloading forms from ODK, priority is critical now...

[amplifi]

Possibly introduced by the accounts middleware changes in #1726

[amplifi]

Steps to reproduce the error

Configure ODK with proper credentials
Retrieve xforms via Get Blank Forms
Enjoy the 500
Same behaviour with GeoODK.

Actual behavior

See above

Expected behavior

Xforms properly downloaded
