is there, somewhere, a compendium of user/group/account-related features in OE?

colleague recently asked for a summary of OE utilities/features that
support customizing the users/groups/passwords/etc. when creating an image, and i realized in short order that there is quite a lot of that.

i see .bbclass files:

* extrausers.bbclass
* useradd_base.bbclass
* useradd.bbclass
* useradd-staticids.bbclass

i see various variables:

* EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS
* USERADD_PARAM
* GROUPADD_PARAM
* GROUPMEMS_PARAM

i see utilities related to IMAGE_FEATURES:

    * ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND +=
      '${@bb.utils.contains_any("IMAGE_FEATURES", [ 'debug-tweaks',
      'empty-root-password' ], "", "zap_empty_root_password ; ",d)}'

the list just goes on and on ... i'll ask if there is, somewhere, a "users and groups" guide for OE, but i'm pretty sure there isn't so i guess i'll have to whip one up.

another users/groups query coming shortly, but this one will be far
more specific.
