[Fix]: Check ipmi groups list before creating user
When phosphor-user-manager is started later than ipmid,
then ipmid misses to get the AvailableGroups list from
phosphor-user-manager. Further creation of user through ipmi
will end up creating user which doesn't belong to any group
at all. This fixes, by making sure, ipmi creates user only
if ipmi group is in available groups lists, and will do
re-query if it is empty.
Tested:
1. Verified the user creation behaviour with having dependency to
phosphor-user-manager and without.
2. Manually tested the following.
a. Stopped phosphor-user-manager & all ipmi
b. Started phosphor-host-ipmid
c. started phosphor-user-manager
d. using ipmitool user set name created user and verified that it
belongs to proper group as expected.
