xUser should have an option to only make sure a user is present

[GokanDonmez]

Problem description

I want to use this to make an account for our LAPS user instead of using the default admin and it fails because the password is 'being managed by a different process'.

Verbose logs

will add later

DSC configuration

xUser name  
 {
                Ensure   = "Present"
                UserName = "[username]"
                Password = $credential
                Disabled = $False
            }

Suggested solution

I would like a version or toggle of this that does not do the password checks and merely creates the user once and then checks if it is still there.

Maybe someone in the community can add a opt-in DoNotEnforcePassword parameter that prevent the resource from enforcing the password. Including adding the required unit and integration tests.
