Various user_or_id fixes

There are a few places in the API where we re-fetch the User when it is
already available.

These fixes allow for making use of the existing user that already
exists instead of calling another lookup.  The two places involved are:

- When authenticating using .basic_authentication
- When generating a token for the user (on login)
