Improve checks for MySQL user's name.
As per http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/identifiers.html , MySQL allows for more than '\w-'. This commit improves the check to ensure that: - if username only contains [0-9a-zA-Z$_], it might be quoted. It is not a requirement though - if username contains anything else, it MUST be quoted I kept 2 checks, but the 2nd one can probably be removed (I can't find a username which match the 2nd one but not the first.)
