Description
If a user has no display/nick name and no name fields, the text for "report this topic" has the reporter's profile link in the markup, but it's invisible because there's no name. See attached images. Example at https://wordpress.org/support/topic/start-here-getting-support-for-thrive-automator/

There is also same issue with rss feeds, when display name is not set
then creator field is empty.

This is a known issue.. WordPress doesn't allow for the display_name to be set to nothing, but we have that case on WordPress.org for some reason (bbPress I think is an easy way to trigger it)
Unfortunately WordPress also doesn't have a filter which can be used to handle this properly, which results in the fixes in #4644 not catching everything.
I'm tempted to just say let's close this as a duplicate of #4644, but I'm going to leave this open due to the impact of it.
If the user name is blank, just use the userid.
