Bug description:
  [Impact]
  No method of disabling user switching for LightDM. Some system administrators require this. There are methods to disable this inside the session but it is preferrable for a single method of doing this.

  [Test Case]
  1. Disable user switching in the LightDM configuration:
   [SeatDefaults]
   allow-user-switching=false
  2. Start LightDM
  3. Log in
  4. Attempt to switch user
  Expected result:
  User is unable to switch
  Observed result:
  Currently not supported - switching is allowed

  [Regression Potential]
  There is some risk of unrelated code being changed. This has been reduced by the use of regression tests, manual testing and providing this in the Ubuntu Desktop PPA.
