Description (last modified by SergeyBiryukov)

Comes up after reading #23190.

Since is_user_spammy expects a user name, we should replace get_user_id_from_string( $username ) with get_user_by( 'login', $username ). Same for the id.

I agree. We could then deprecate get_user_id_from_string(), since it's the only instance in core.
