[JIRA] (JENKINS-44860) Disable masking of usernames

Title: Message Title

oeuftete commented on JENKINS-44860   Re: Disable masking of usernames I am not sure PR 54 addresses the spirit of the request.  Or really solves anything... why wouldn't a user just update their secret to just secret text if they need to hardcode the username? There is value in storing the credential as a username and a password. Usernames are going to be things like "`jenkins`, `release`, `artifactory`, `git` and `user`" as the opener and commenters have noted.  The workaround noted above does not address the types of problems the user name masking causes... I believe for most users, and certainly for me, these are issues with console log processing, e.g. 00:16:31.073 [Scala Compiler] [ERROR] Can't create blame requests for some affected files: 00:16:31.073 [Scala Compiler] [ERROR] - Skipping non-workspace file /home/****/workspace/somebuild/someFile.scala 00:16:31.073 [Scala Compiler] [ERROR] - Skipping non-workspace file /home/****/workspace/somebuild/someOtherFile.scala ... where `jenkins` was filtered out in the console log.
