[TYPO3-core] RFC Bug #11038: Optimize loading of frontend user groups

[Rupert Germann]

hey,

please don't give a "+ 1 by reading" to such crucial changes!

the call to initUserGroups() calls fe_user->fetchGroupData() which is indeed
an expensive operation but it also sets the vars "$this->loginUser"
and "$this->gr_list".

especially gr_list is used at many places and it is not set anymore now.
One effect of this missing gr_list is, that the complete "enableFields"
stuff works differently -> means f.e. that a function like
cobj->getTreeList seems to ignore the "$depth" parameter. This is caused by
a call to $GLOBALS['TSFE']->checkEnableFields() which expects a gr_list.

please revert this change.

greets
Rupert
