Subject: [PATCH] Running superlinter as a user not defined in /etc/passwd
 causes error messages (#4351)

* no need to run git check-ignore on every file if you are not setting IGNORE_GITIGNORED_FILES

* use id instead of whoami for determining running and discard stderr

* accidently include change from other PR

* remove commented code
