[keycloak-dev] keycloak admin access in order to crate users

We have rest endpoints (as well as a java admin client library) for
everything that can be done through the admin console. One issue at the
moment is that the default username/password for the admin has to be
changed through the admin console. That's something we're going to improve
in the future, but for now you'd have to reset the password manually or use
for example Sellenium to do it before running your tests. You can take a
look at our Arquillian based testsuite that does exactly this:
