    Removed parentheses in autocompleter if suggested user does not have a first and last name. 
    
    The suggestions show up as "Username (FirstName LastName). If the user does not provide a first/last name, it looks like "Username ()". 
    
    This occurs in RB's main search functionality and in the reviewer's people input field. 
    
    I also have noticed (and mentioned) about the problem with overlapping characters in the autocomplete suggestions with users that have long usernames. I am having a slight issue with finding an elegant solution to changing the size of the widget dynamically. I saw some suggestions in stackoverflow but I am looking for something more elegant.
    Manual Testing. 
    
    Tests include:
    - Users with first and last name.
    - Users with no first/last name
    - Users with only first name
    - Users with only last name
    JS
    1. Performed test where user has First and Last name and no first/last name.
      
      It appears to be working correctly.
      
      I.e. When the user has no first/last name, there is no parentheses in the search autocomplete. If there is a first/last name, then the parentheses show up as expected.
      1. Not sure how to attach screenshots to reviews, but here's proof http://i.imgur.com/9TkGA.png?1 (let me know if it's possible to attach screenshots)
      2. And this is what it looked before this patch was applied. http://i.imgur.com/NBFuo.png
