Display of username on login screen

[Alexander Skwar]

Hi

On the login screen (horde/login.php), only the username of the logged
in user is displayed.  I'd like it better, if also the real name would
be displayed, if one is set in the /etc/passwd GECOS entry.

Attached is a diff which does just this.  It displays the user's real
name, if the function posix_getpwnam is available.  If so, the function
returns the real name.  It further also returns other "useful"
information like phone number, etc.pp..  Per standard, these fields
should be seperated by commas (,).  The diff actually only returns the
very first comma set, so, if someone has his username specified like
"Doe, John", it would only print "Doe".

If no realname is set, or if the function does not exist, the username
is displayed, like it was before.
