pylint-django calls ast_from_module_name without catching AstroidImportError

[jonholdsworth]

Bug description

Possibly related to: https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/8554

Pylint consistently crashes across all versions including latest, on one particular file, throwing 'AstroidError' mentioning 'inference_tip.py' and '_inference_tip_cached'.

Configuration

No response

Command used

pylint <directory>

Pylint output

I'm finding out if I'm allowed to post the actual code.

The error is:

pylint crashed with a ``AstroidError`` and with the following stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/astroid/inference_tip.py", line 33, in _inference_tip_cached
    result = _cache[func, node]
KeyError: (<function infer_key_classes at 0x7ff9268d2c20>, <Call l.20 at 0x7ff921fd10f0>)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Expected behavior

Pylint would just warn about code findings and not crash.
