Join ipb_by to user table to get the user name. If we can't find a user, fallback to ipb_by_text. This lets centralauth blocks have the blocking user be displayable again. Comment: This is not for RenameUser; it's for CentralAuth global-suppression blocks, where the blocking steward may not have an account on the wiki where the block is being registered.
