Title:
  Allow minimum information when creating a user via SAML

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  We need to allow the creation of a user with minimum details from SAML

  With modern privacy laws some Identity Providers will not include
  identifying things like first name, last name, email address in their
  minimum packet of info about an authenticated user.

  Mahara expect these to exist to create a new user, otherwise will
  throw an error.

  To get passed this, by allowing just an unique identifier or username,
  we will need to create a config option to be set so the site can
  handle this.

  And once the user is created the person logging in will be presented
  with the unset mandatory fields screen where they can fill in the
  missing information.
