[Bug 1636286] [NEW] Check during installation / upgrade that root user exists

 

Public bug reported:

Sometimes, the root user (user with id 0) is deleted from the database
by users. That can cause a bunch of issues as the user is needed by
Mahara, e.g. see bug #1632717.

Robert suggested to implement a check during installation / upgrade to
look for that user and print a warning with steps to get it back if it's
not present.
