acct-user.eclass: make ACCT_USER_NAME writable
The ACCT_USER_NAME variable is set to $PN by Gentoo policy. Prior to
this commit, it was also marked "readonly", preventing it from being
changed in an ebuild. In an overlay, and combined with the package
naming restrictions in the PMS, this has the unfortunate side effect of
prohibiting some otherwise-valid usernames. We drop the "readonly" to
allow those users to be managed (in overlays) using GLEP81 packages.
