For authentication, the root user must exist in the system.users table. A password should also be chosen at this stage. #9794 adds a backdoor for clients authenticating as security.RootUser. This should be removed with this change.

As I said in #9794, I would prefer if it were impossible to give the root user a password and it used certificate-only authentication. Then the bootstrapping could be non-interactive. (I think it would be nice if root existed in system.users, but I'd also be OK with a special-case that would allow root to be used regardless of the state of that table).
Closing issue because root will have cert only authentication. Since we never have to check for the existence of root, there doesn't seem to be a need to add root to system.users
