Trailing underscore in username is now allowed:

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/b3d2982be7d40ff632afcd1c3cbe8c9e78a632be](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/b3d2982be7d40ff632afcd1c3cbe8c9e78a632be)

However `UserNameSuggester` still suggests usernames with a sequence of 2 or more special chars (like `arpit__jalan`) which is not valid. ~~I am working on a fix for that.~~ Fixed:
