add a workaround for the live session uid

it's a bit awkward but the user is 999 not 1000 so there's a fundamental
conflict between what /etc says should be the minimum and what it
actually is

kdenetwork-filesharing specifically depends on this being correct
because it uses the login.defs data to filter out system users from its
user list. if the current user itself is a system user that gets a bit
awkward
