Allow using a name that differs from hostname when connecting to shared projects

See original GitHub issue

I use Ghidra on multiple devices across multiple OSes, and due to the way windows behaves, I have no proper control over the username. This causes me to have to request adding another user to the server every time I use a new device, which would be easily avoided if I could choose the username to be the same as my linux usernames.

EDIT: #357 seems to indicate -Duser.name=... can be used, but I don’t see this documented anywhere. Additionally, this should really be configurable through the UI somewhere, whether it’s a preference setting or when connecting to a repository.

What does that even mean?

It’s pretty standard stuff to let users specify both username and password when logging in to a service.

This is a Ghidra Server installation policy decision to enable this capability.
