Setting `MONKEY_MONGO_URL` env variable to non-default value results in island exiting with error

Describe the bug
The mongo URL is configurable via the MONKEY_MONGO_URL environment variable. However, Flask-Security also has a connection to mongodb, and it uses hard-coded values instead of the connection details from MONKEY_MONGO_URL. Thus, if MONKEY_MONGO_URL differs from the defaults, the server will error out because one of the connections to mongo will fail.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Setup and run mongodb on a different port (e.g.
27019) - Set MONKEY_MONGO_URL environment variable with the port (e.g.
mongodb://localhost:27019/monkey_island) - Run the island
- Observe that the island exits because it failed to connect to mongodb
Expected behavior
I expect both connections to mongodb to use the same connection details.
