[systemd-devel] [RFC][PATCH v3 1/2] utmp-wtmp: allow overriding username on wall

utmp_wall() now takes an optional argument 'username_override' which
allows the caller to override the username shown on wall messages.
journald will use this to inform users that its wall messages comes from
'systemd-journald'.
