Stop creating default user for cloud-init

All relatively modern cloud-inits are capable of creating default user
as well as granting root privileges for them. Currently
cloud-init creates pretty much the same sudoers file.
So running steps under the new DIB_DEBIAN_CLOUD_INIT_HELPER
does not make sense for last couple of Debian releases.

Added a ``DIB_DEBIAN_CLOUD_INIT_HELPER`` variable that controls whether
``debian`` element will attempt to pre-create required users and sudoers
file for the default cloud-init user. This should not be needed for any
modern Debian distro.
