Bug description:
* Impact:
PAM messages overwrite LightDM's user field when using pkcs11 smartcard
authentication
* Test case:
- Setup smartcard authentication.
- Start unity-greeter
-> Without the fix the username is obscured by PAM messages.
* Regression potential:
Look at how/where pam messages are displayed on the login screen (wrong
password, etc)
