Fix displaying the user name in error message about no home directory.

 lisp/startup.el (command-line): Don't display an empty user name in
 the error message about non-existent home directory, when
 init-file-user was set to an empty string.  See
 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2012-07/msg00835.html
 for the details and context.
