When getting info on a myspace user not on the buddy list, a temporary
PurpleBuddy is needed so that the data can be associated properly. This
fixes a bug wherein the profile link went to http://myspace.com/0 for all
buddies not on the list. A check against that uid being 0 has also been added
to avoid displaying junk data.
Such temporary MsimUser objects (note that the temporariness of MsimUser
objects is unchanged; a temporary PurpleBuddy has just been added to go with
it) are destroyed before a delayed callback can be triggerred. This means that
we can not request a buddy icon on that object, because we will end up with
a pointer to freed data in the callback some time in the future. This fixes
a crash when getting info on a non-buddy list buddy (which for reasons I can't
pinpoint was most likely if the username contained capital letters).
A reference counting system for MsimUser objects would fix this but is a
significantly more complex solution.
