----------------------------------------
Bug #15429: Fix test failure if ENV["USER"] doesn't match Process.euid
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15429

* Author: jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: ruby 2.6.0dev (2018-12-17 trunk 66427) [x86_64-openbsd]
* Backport: 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
When dropping privileges to run tests, ENV["USER"] could be set
to a user that doesn't match Process.euid, which causes
test_seteuid_name to fail with Errno::EPERM.

Attached is a patch that fixes this issue by trying to get the
name for the current euid, and only fallback to ENV["USER"] if
that doesn't work.
