Fixes #1068.
Description
Per the #1068 issue, there are some use cases where the 'manage_posts_custom_column' hook is used outside of The Loop. In current versions of the plugin, this scenario produces an empty column. This PR refactors the callback for that hook to use the passed $post_id instead of using the global $post variable.
Testing
You can test that nothing has broken by viewing the Posts table and checking that the Authors column displays the same as before. I'm not 100% sure of a reliable test for the edge case, besides installing a plugin like Admin Columns and running the export from the Posts table.
