Message:

Show user_login in Dashboard user dropdowns.

User dropdowns in wp-admin have traditionally shown the users' display names.
However, this causes ambiguity when users share display names. To correct this,
we now show the unique user_login in parentheses after the display name.

The new display_name_with_login value for the show parameter of
wp_dropdown_users() enables this functionality. The default value of show
has not been changed, for backward compatibility, but all instances of
wp_dropdown_users() in core wp-admin have been switched.

This changeset also reduces some duplicated logic when assembling a user list
when include_selected is true.

Props krogsgard, boonebgorges.
Fixes #31251.
