Patch against r47324

It would be nice to be able to query the editcount and/or blockinfo for anon
users through list=users; groups, registration, and emailable of course don't
make sense for anon users.

This patch should do that. It adds an extra query if any anon users are
specified and editcount is requested,

That query was pretty evil in terms of performance, which is why the editcount for anons won't be implemented.

and adds an extra query if any anon users
are specified and blockinfo is requested, for a total of two possible extra
queries. If no anon users are specified or neither of those two options are
specified, no extra queries are performed.

The blockinfo part isn't very useful, as that information is already available through list=blocks&bkip=IP (for one IP; also considers rangeblocks) or list=blocks&bkusers=IP1|IP2|... (multiple IPs/users, doesn't consider range blocks), and these methods give more detailed information. Considering this, the value of usprop=blockinfo is doubtful as it is.

Closing the bug as WONTFIX on the grounds mentioned above.

I also incidentally fixed a PostgreSQL error, PostgreSQL requires the optional
"AS" in column aliases. If you WONTFIX the patch, please pick up that minor
fix.

Picked up that and the indentation fix around line 123 in r47333.

I was afraid of that, even though an EXPLAIN on my (empty) local database looked promising.
