last: fix is_phantom() detection
The /proc/<pid>/loginuid is not always available, and when so a running
session should not be determined to be gone. This is a regression from
commit mentioned in reference.
Sessions that have started before previous system boot, and did not log
out meanwhile, will be marked as gone. It is fair to say that these
sessions are most likely result of a wtmp corruption.
