(RADIATOR) delete_attr('User-Name') in PreClientHook

Hi Toomas

when you rewrite the username, the NAS does not know about this, so in the
accounting requests it sends the mac address again as username.
one recomendation is to keep track of the MAC and username in a sepparate
table and rewrite the accounting username based on that table.
