Message:

User: Make the user_login field readonly instead of disabled.

On the profile edit screen in wp-admin, the username was previously displayed using an input field with the disabled attribute. This field was skipped by screen readers, which leads to a loss of information for visually impaired users. This changeset switches it to a readonly attribute, which is exactly the purpose of this field.

Props roytanck, audrasjb, rajinsharwar, joedolson.
Fixes #60774.
