Only return email addresses in from appropriate RPCs about app-inventor-gallery

The Owner field in ObjAppData refers to e-mail, the above makes it seem like this should not be the case? In every place that ObjAppData is queried, e-mail is exchanged for display name in a separate action.

ObjAppData is at the backend. What is critical is that no RPC return email
addresses from ObjAppData or ObjVisitors, except for the very special
(currently) two. All other cases where email addresses are in the database,
the email address should be replaced with the displayName in the RPC result.

I'm going to write 2 functions in MVisitors.js which exchange displayName for email and vice-versa

Sounds fine. Do we need the vice-versa? I suppose similar functionality is
already in use, for retrieving the ObjVisitors object given a display name,
so merging those seems reasonable.

Added 2 functions: MVisitors._getDisplayName(userId) and MVisitors._getVisitorId(displayName). They do what you would suppose them to do, returning displayName or email (using email interchangeably Visitor ID)

These functions are now in use in the Mobile client, and could be used to simplify a bunch of code in MApps.js which does the same.

These functions are also regression tested
