Frederic Wenzel updated MNT-1548:
---------------------------------

        Summary: Updater security  (was: User Access Levels)
    Description: 
Maintain's updating procedure needs to be made more secure.

- setup_user_environment() should check if MAINTAIN_DB_VERSION is the actual db version match, kick all users out if not.
- change the backend accordingly (don't run build scripts if your db is not up to date)
- Show people a login screen mentioning that Maintain is currently being upgraded and they should check back later
- only allow full admin login there
- on login, forward the full admin to the Maintain installer
