Roles

There are two roles defined: Admin and DefaultUser.
Admin users have access to the Admin UI. No other privileges are available.

Other options

--only-if-empty - skip user creation if database contains other users. Useful for env provisioning.
--skip-existing and --update-existing - skip or update if a user with the same username already exists in the database.
--use-random-password - create a user with an unknown password. Might be used to create service users, it's expected to be used in conjunction with dbnd-web webserver create-personal-access-token -u user -p any (-p any might be used if no advanced auth with Keycloak configured).
