oc-1713 - [remoteStorage] fails to support external user auth

[msrex]

From http://bugs.owncloud.org/thebuggenie/owncloud/issues/oc-1713

Unfortunately I can't judge whether this is still relevant. There is a patch in the original bugreport.

Description:
I'm using the user_ldap and failed to get remoteStorage links (empty array) for existing users. This is due to other apps not being loaded, thus OC_User::userExists is only propagated to the OC_User_Database class and never to other backends because they could not register into _usedBackends. The attached patch fixes this problem.

Reproduction steps:
n/a.

Which version? Why the change in webfinger?

version 4.0.7

You're probably right, changing the logic in public.php instead should solve this kind of problems globally. I guess calling OC_App::loadApps() instead of OC_App::loadApp($app) should not have any drawback.

remoteStorage support is being reworked by @michielbdejong, see owncloud-archive/apps#448
