Bug Description

The changelog trailer line of packages published by the CI Train is currently normally "CI Train Bot <email address hidden>". It should instead be a real person who was responsible for providing the instructions to assemble the upload, which I think would normally equate to the silo owner. This would have two benefits:

 * it would be obvious to people looking at the output of the process (the assembled source packages in the Ubuntu archive) who requested the change;
 * Launchpad would be able to notify a real person about problems such as copy failures

Ok, this is implemented, but part of the implementation was that Bileto only just started recording who created which request in order to enable this. So you'll still see some old requests coming through that still attribute the package to the bot. It should be working for all new requests going forward, however if there's a problem it will just silently fall back on using the bot name, so please let me know if you see any bot-attributed uploads that are associated with request id's newer than about 315, thanks.
