Some tests were failing on darwin, if the auto-allocate-uids featrure was enabled. This was because AAU on darwin works by setuid-ing as a non-existent user, so the tests that were relying on `whoami` were failing. In the case of trusted-users we fall back to printing the user id, which is already handled gracefully in the daemon code - i.e. when a user does not exist or for some other reason looking up their username is not possible, the daemon falls back to searching for their uid inside the trusted-users list. When whoami is used to print the username for other purpose, we default to printing nixbld. Change-Id: Ib61615677565098cb5fbf5e26a946ef427c58caf
