Between 1.309 and 1.313, display of Mercurial users was broken. For example,

http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/3c5fac30b9a4

shows a user "Tomas Hurka <thurka@netbeans.org>" and changelog.xml contains this
name as well. But

http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/NB-Core-Build/2834/changes

shows "Tomas Hurka _thurka@netbeans.org>"

as does

http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/NB-Core-Build/2834/api/xml

so this broken name appears also in the NetBeans changelog view.

The culprit seems to be 18760 in User.java:

id = id.replace('
', '').replace('/', '').replace('<','_');

I am guessing that the correct fix is for the User constructor to take both id
and fullName params, with fullName being the unescaped original arg to User.get.
