Improve user creation #4034

Description

describe the request

Currently, installing a new user only requires entering a username, password, and the user's name, which will be part of the sudoers directory.

  • It would be useful if user creation could be allowed to add extra groups to the users created, such as adding them to a video group or a custom group if the installeer prefers.
  • It would also be helpful to allow users to choose a shell other than bash as their login shell; this would be useful to me since I usually use Fish, and the default ISO have zsh making it odd not have the choice at leas with bash and zsh.
  • Finally, I find it odd that only sudo is allowed when Arch already offers doas, sudo, sudo-rs, and obviously run0 thanks to Systemd. Perhaps it would be good to at least allow a choice between sudo and doas.
