Title:
  cc_users_groups changes passwords and locks pre-existing accounts

Status in cloud-init:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The behavior of cc_users_groups leads to a pre-existing user account
  being locked out (by default).

  The fix: "return False" from add_user() when the account pre-exists.
  Then add a conditional to create_user() to also skip password
  manipulation if the account already existed.

  if not self.add_user(name, **kwargs):
      LOG.info("User %s already exists, skipping password setting." % name)
      return False
