Generate a user to use both on the LiveCD and installed system

It takes some finagling to get this to work everywhere, but this seems
to do the trick.  Note that this means we need to set
UBIQUITY_AUTOMATIC=1, which has some other side effects, but nothing
too bad (mostly related to not being able to go backwards in the
ubiquity installer).
