Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The LightDM user list provided to greeters via liblightdm doesn't have a method to access the user ID. This requires a greeter that might need this information to do a second lookup to get it.

  [Test Case]
  1. Write a greeter that needs the user ID
  Expected result:
  Can do it.
  Observed result:
  Can't do it.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low, the information was already in liblightdm, we just now expose it. Tested with regression tests.
