Wording is wrong: min. and max. KPC are 1 for django-scrypt format, but
KPC used by single mode is 8.

Option --skip-self-tests would improve performance in case 1 candidate
per salt. Not much though. The option was created for similar use cases.

Nevertheless with the trick with rules, single mode would be faster even
for 1 candidate per salt. It is not perfect now because there is
additional pass of hashing for every uncracked hash (issue #4111).

Of course, the year should be 2019. That's from old snippet for license.

Thanks!
