chore(deps): replace users crate as per rustsec advisory

[LNSD]

Context

The users crate is unmaintained since 2020. This made the rustsec team to file two security issues for the crate:

• users crate is unmaintained: https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db/blob/main/crates/users/RUSTSEC-2023-0040.md

  The users crate hasn't seen any action since 2020-10-08. The developer seems MIA since.

• Unaligned read of *const *const c_char pointer: https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db/blob/main/crates/users/RUSTSEC-2023-0059.md

  Affected versions dereference a potentially unaligned pointer. The pointer is commonly unaligned in practice, resulting in undefined behavior.

  In some build modes, this is observable as a panic followed by abort. In other build modes the UB may manifest in some other way, including the possibility of working correctly in some architectures.

  The crate is not currently maintained, so a patched version is not available.

The security issues recommend to replace the users dependency with either uzers crate (a maintained fork of the users crate) or to move to sysinfo crate.

This Rust security advisory issues translate into dependabot security alerts like the following:

Proposed solution

The uzers fork, thanks to a PThorpe92 patch (rustadopt/uzers-rs#8), solved the security issue. This patch was included in the latest release, v0.11.3.

Therefore, replacing the users crate with the uzers (>= v0.11.3) crate should solve the security issue reported by the rustec team (and keep dependabot happy).

[LNSD]

Specifying the "patch" version makes cargo to resolve the uzers dependency with >= v0.11.3 constraint.

[LNSD]

The Lint/lint check is failing again due to being unable to check PR changes coming from a fork. The failure is unrelated to the PR changes.
