[horde] username always null in prefs_init hooks with LDAP auth

[Guenter Bartsch]

found a solution:

delete FROM horde_prefs WHERE pref_uid LIKE  '%guenter%' ;
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.04 sec)

will trick horde into thinking the user has never logged in and indeed
it will call the prefs init hooks which solves our problem :)

thanks again for the support!
