Profiles: a remembered face beats a row asked for before the cache opened

Since the profile cache moved to IndexedDB, a profile asked for during boot
(a restored profile page, offline or with relays failing) left a loading or
miss row in memory, and the re-warm after the cache opened skipped any pk
already present, so the cached name never showed (profile-draft-test: the
editor reopened with an empty Display name). Placeholder rows without a
name/picture (and without a real kind 0 behind them) now give way to the
cached one.
