Purely in theory, the root user can have another name but he will always have the UID 0.
Although I have never seen this is in real life, this PR solve this 'problem".
It's also a couple of milliseconds faster because
id
is not forced to look up a name. (Even when asking for a name it will always look up the UID first)
