What's the official way of getting the username in 1.20.8? I see 'juju
api-endpoints' which returns the state servers, and 'juju
get-environment' that returns a bunch of information, except the
username.

The only way I see is to get the .jenv file and parse it, but it feels a
bit dirty. Is it guaranteed that the location and name of the file won't
change, and that the format of it won't be changed in way that breaks
backwards-compatibility?
