For private profiles, hide all profile information from logged-out users

Bug1158625: If the user hasn't made their profile public, don't even show their pic and name
to logged-out users.

And in order to prevent enumeration attacks, show the same access denied screen to a
logged-out user, whether they hit the URL for an exising profile or whether they entered
an invalid URL.

  Make profile information not avaialble for public when not shared

Bug description:
  From at least Mahara 1.6 on, very basic information about a user
  (profile picture, name, institution) is made public when public pages
  are allowed. This information is displayed even when the user hasn't
  shared their portfolio with the public. This came about when changes
  were made to the logged-in user profile access.

  In the past (at least up to 1.4), you only saw the login screen when
  you tried to access a profile of a user but were not logged in. This
  should be the case again.
