Use the correct nickname even when a room is non-anonymous

Description

When the user joins an anonymous room, other participants’ nicknames are derived from the resourcepart of the in-room JID on a best-effort basis, so room@server/user becomes user.

When the user joins a non-anonymous room though, the nicknames are derived from the localpart of their real JID, creating confusion as to who the user is talking to since most other clients will continue to use the in-room resourcepart in that case.

Probably does this.

But there was a bug in 3.5.1 in which it didn't apply for contacts that weren't already in the local contact list, meaning most of the time it didn't do anything. f75aaac5e9c0a0ce6e19c3d167ae41acc02f95b1 (merged a few days ago) fixes that
