        Bug 449397 – misinterpreted uid over ssh

        * libnautilus-private/nautilus-file-private.h:
        * libnautilus-private/nautilus-file.c:
        Use the gvfs reported owner/group names instead of the local
        uid/gui mapping. This allows remote shares to report the correct
        names.

This "fixes" the issue, in that we're not using the wrong table to look up the
name. Instead we let the gvfs backend supply the name.

However, currently the sftp backend doesn't report a name which means we'll
report the owner by uid/gid instead of username/groupname. I don't know if its
possible to do a name lookup of for remote uids via sftp."
