Search for user_name == userinput. If it matches continue with that.
Otherwise if userinput matches an e-mail regexp look for an authenticated
user_email that matches userinput. If fount continue with that.

ie: Username trumps e-mail if present.

So usernames that existed pre @ blacklisting will still work the same way as
before. But you can't game the system by trying to swipe people's e-mail since
@ is blacklisted in usernames.
