[shib_auth] help with a couple of error messages please

[Andy Kohler]

We use Shib with Drupal 7.  These are the 2 attributes we use:

Server variable for username: HTTP_SHIBUCLAUNIVERSITYID
Server variable for e-mail address: HTTP_MAIL

I think that attribute names can vary depending on mappings in
attributes.xml.  The SHIBUCLAUNIVERSITYID is the 9-digit UCLA UID.

We don't let users enter a custom email address, instead relying on what
comes from Shibboleth, so we apparently don't use the custom_form or
custom_data in your error messages.
