#11358: wp_insert_user() does not update display name in user comments

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 In WordPress 2.8.6, and in at least some of the older versions, changes to
 the display name of author are not reflected in the user comments.

 The display name in the comments is also expected to change as a result of
 the user's change to his/her display name.

 I understand this would result in updating a large number of rows, but
 this operation can be performed only when a change in the display name
 occurs - this is possible because we have access to both the old user data
 and the new user data.
