Currently we have two places to initialize user related variables for template engine, one is in init.ftl/init.vm, another is in UsersTemplateContextContributor.

We did this because themes developed against GA2 may throw errors when deployed in GA1, see more details here https://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-66428.

To avoid same variable initialized twice, we set a falg once the variables are initialized and check the flag in init.ftl/init.vm.

This issue can not be tested manually.
