Backport

This PR is auto-generated from #23240 to be assessed for backporting due to the inclusion of the label backport/1.11.x.

The below text is copied from the body of the original PR.


Currently the MongoDB plugin does not allow for rotate-root actions unless the user exists already in the admin database.

While fine for some use-cases, many environments do not allow true root-level access to MongoDB and separate admins must administer their own databases within Mongo (similar to Vault's namespaces), and it is not unreasonable to expect that teams administering Vault will not be MongoDB admins and therefore not have "full" root access to their target databases.
