Description

Description of problem:
in API 'password' should be a required key during user creation as in CLI:

pulp-admin -u admin -p admin auth user create --login test-user

Enter password for user [test-user] :
Re-enter password for user [test-user]:

Password cannot be empty

Enter password for user [test-user] :

If user will be created with API where 'password' can be skipped then it will be impossible to login with that user:

$ curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" -H "WebFrameworkSwitch: django" -X POST -k -u admin:admin -d '{"login":"test-user1"}' 'https://localhost/pulp/api/v2/users/'

Since we do support other forms of authentication that do not involve the password, I believe we should not require the password to be specified. Pulp respects the REMOTE_USER environment variable if set by httpd, so any httpd authentication module can be used. We have an open pull request to add Kerberos support, for example.
