Comment:

 In [changeset:"61633" 61633]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61633"
 Users: Ensure switching to current user doesn't reinstantiate current
 user.

 Prevent `wp_set_current_user()` from reinstantiating the current user when
 the user ID is passed as a string, eg `wp_set_current_user( (string)
 get_current_user_id() )`.

 This restores the function's previous behaviour of returning early in the
 event the IDs loosely match.

 Follow up to r57882.

 Props westonruter, peterwilsoncc.
 Fixes #64628.
