Description

Instead of displaying ipb_address directly.

It seems old Extension:Renameuser didn't update ipb_address correctly, leaving many incorrect ipb_address values in database.

This also affects newly renamed users (due to job queue).

The method of trying to join user table is already used in revision table etc.
