[Bug 1734186] [NEW] Remove mention of username and email once account is deleted

 

Public bug reported:

We need to make a series of changes in Mahara to comply with the GDPR.
More info is available on the wiki at
https://wiki.mahara.org/wiki/Developer_Area/Specifications_in_Development/GDPR_compliance

While we append a "deleted" at the end of a username and email address,
it is still possible for someone looking into the database to identify
the email address. Since we don't need to keep it, both username and
email address should become a random value.

** Affects: mahara
     Importance: High
         Status: Confirmed
