The old regex with `^...$` incorrectly matched `'bad\\n'` (a username ending with a newline), while the new regex with `\\A...\\Z` properly rejects it.

This replaces `^` and `$` anchors (which allow a trailing newline due to Python regex behavior) with `\\A` and `\\Z` anchors (which match only the absolute start and end of the string), preventing usernames with trailing newlines from being accepted.",
