Public bug reported:

See: https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7479

If you activate the "Never display usernames" site setting, and turn on
clean URLs, the clean URL for new users' profile pages will still
contain their username.

If you do "regerenate clean URLs", however, the newly created clean URLs
will *not* have the usernames.

This is because the method regenerateurls_submit() in cleanurls.php
respects the $CFG->nousernames setting, but the other places that
generate clean URLs on account creation do not:

- User->create() in auth/user.php
- create_user() in lib/user.php
