[#44823] - Since 5.2.3, setting a user to "Require Password Reset" creates perpetual redirects

- Set a user to require a password reset upon next login
- Have that user try to log in to the back end administration
- Once they have entered their credentials, they will get an error like "Err_too_many_redirects" (verbiage changes depending on browser).
It took us 24 hours to figure out what was causing this issue. We checked everything from cache to .htaccess to DNS zone file settings, every possible extension conflict, and browsers including Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.
Ultimately, the solution to the redirect problem was to turn off the requirement to reset password on next login!

So sorry - I dug through issues first but just didn't see it, and wanted to
make sure it was reported in case people were still trying to figure it
out. Thank you!
