As part of the transition to crates.io usernames, change admin commands and APIs to use `users.username` rather than `users.gh_login`. End users of crates.io should not see any observable effects of this PR. Admins will need to remember that: - Looking up a user by their token with the `verify-token` command will return the user's crates.io username, which currently always matches their GitHub username, but that will not necessarily be the case in the future. - Using the `list_admin` API will look up users by their crates.io username (I think I might be the only one who uses this) - Usernames in some log messages will now be crates.io usernames (I added "crates.io username" to the log messages as a clarification)
