This adds session support for anonymous users and fixes a bug/typo.
1. changed rid for user #0 from 0 to 1 (rid 1 == anonymous user) to make
inner join work.
2. replaced "if ($user .." by "if ($user->uid .." because now $user is
always set (my previous change probably caused this).
3. db_next_id("user_uid") -> db_next_id("users_uid");
