Patch for creating maintenance/createUser.php script
MediaWiki currently has no command-line tool for adding non-admin users, so I
wrote one. This should prove quite handy for automated deployment, testing
etc, in fact I was rather surprised this didn't exist already.
Usage: php createUser.php username password [groups ...] [--help]
options:
--help show this message
Sample: "php maintenance/createUser.php SampleBot botsekret Bot" creates a user
called 'SampleBot' with password 'botsekret' and adds him to group 'Bot'.
Note: This overlaps partly with the existing createAndPromote.php for creating
admins, but this is more flexible and should probably replace that?
