Title: Return user name attribute on OSM primitives

I was confused as to why JOSM was sometimes (but not always) showing a blank user name in the "authors" panel. Turns out pyxapi wasn't setting this attribute on things. Apparently JOSM builds a global user ID->name map which spans all data layers so it was looking up the ID for blank user names when it could from data I had in other layers.
