Subject: [PATCH] fix(sudoer): take the user name and password from options

The sudoer postscript created the xcat account with the fixed password
rootpw. Take the user name and the password from the -u and -p options.
This is the change from #6166, rebased onto master.

(cherry picked from commit 986052a6382b513046e4926abb778d5fec6efaf9)
