Public bug reported:

There is code that sets it to be passed in username and code to set it
to be external user id value

But it should just be remote username

In LTI module_lti_launch.php we have the setting of values for the
auth_remote_user table.

on line 127 and 139 we set the $remoteusername

then on line 183, when we are auto creating a user, we set the $user->username 
with this $remoteusername
then on  line 200 we set the remote user name as                     
$authremoteuser->remoteusername = $user->username;


but if we are not creating a new user but updating an existing one we get to 
the $updateremote part on line 235
and here we set the $authremoteuser->remoteusername as $params['user_id'];

but it should be actually what we matched on earlier, either on line 115 => 
$params['user_id']
125 => $params['ext_user_username']
133 => $params['lis_person_contact_email_primary']

In fact, instead of setting $updateremote = true we can set it to the
$params value used and pass that to line 238
