Update username if it changes #297

Not sure if this is for the partner site or this one, but if a user changes his username in OSM (which is possible under settings on your OSM page) it shows the old name on the Missing Maps stats pages. @kamicut was looking into it but asked me to submit an issue

The API only gets the username once when creating a user. We could fix this by dropping the name column in the database and doing a second call to the OSM API from the frontend when we're rendering the page. cc @nbumbarger
