settings/production: Update memcached backend for django >= 3.2

python-memcached backend has been replaced by pymemcache since django 3.2.

Related to #4734 (closed)

Spotted when testing with django 4.1 in docker environment (where python has been bumped to 3.9 as django 4 dropped support for python 3.7).
