When a recipe inherits useradd and only sets USERADD_DEPENDS (to depend
on users/groups created by another recipe) without creating any
users/groups itself, the parse-time sanity check in
update_useradd_after_parse() unconditionally throws a fatal error about
missing USERADD_PACKAGES.

This series fixes the issue by skipping the USERADD_PACKAGES validation
when USERADD_DEPENDS is set, and adds a selftest recipe to exercise this
code path.

Fixes [YOCTO #15863]

Zk47T (2):
  useradd.bbclass: allow inheriting with only USERADD_DEPENDS set
  meta-selftest: add usegroup-deponly recipe to test USERADD_DEPENDS
    only
