[keycloak-dev] Add support for creating user with credentials in admin endpoints

[Stian Thorgersen]

We do, either through import at startup for a new realm or partial import
at runtime. However, those are bulk operations to import a bunch of stuff
at the same time. We already let the admin set the credentials as well as
role-mappings, but it has to be done with several calls. I can see a few
valid uses cases to be able to add users:

* Some sort of scripted migration of users, where you want to import one
user at a time and you have access to the hashed password
* An external user provisioning system and/or user self-registration service
