Port of #2880910-30: [D7] Nothing clears the "5 failed login attempts" security message when a user resets their own password

Problem / Motivation

If a user forgets their password and tries to log in 5 times then they get blocked by flood control. They can now use the password reset functionality per email, but once they log out shortly after that they are still blocked when trying to log in again.

Proposed resolution

A D7 patch has been created to solve this when using the one-time password reset link. Use the logic from that patch in this module's submit handler to perform the same logic.
