#28659 (comment) says "Message from Gerrit User 5056". This needs to be fixed, and soon.

It's easy to fix - the usual Gerrit REST API ChangeInfo uses the right names. I'm perplexed as to why the maintner feed says these things but at least the bot could re-fetch the actual Gerrit comments directly from Gerrit (only when it needs to post one to GitHub, so fairly low rate) to find out real names.

#28662 means that from Gerrit I can't tell who is writing the CL and this bug means that from GitHub I can't tell who is reviewing the CL. This is not really an acceptable review process.

maintner, devapp: display proper owner names instead of Gerrit User NNN
5df336c 
This change deletes the OwnerName method on GerritCL, since Gerrit's
format for its NoteDB backing store changed to display "Gerrit User NNN"
instead of the proper display name in the meta commit.

Update golang/go#28663

This should take effect on Nov 9 00:00 UTC in that all new Gerrit comments after that time will have the correct display name. dev.golang.org/reviews is fixed now.
