[Mauiusers] Jobs ignore "BYNAME" advance reservation flag

[Thomas Roeblitz]

Hi,

  after fixing a little bug in src/server/UserI.c, Maui shows the
desired behavior.

Patch:

@@ -6516,7 +6516,7 @@
 
   Flags = 0;
 
-  if (!strcmp(FlagString,NONE))
+  if (strcmp(FlagString,NONE) != 0)
     {
     MUBMFromString(FlagString,MResFlags,&Flags);
     }

Cheers,

  Thomas
