How to create normal user with viewer or editor role in grafana using helm chart.
I deployed grafana helm chart and default admin user is working but i also want to create separate user with viewer role using helm chart.

**What would you like to be added**:
Add a possibility to provision orgs and … users with passwords and permissions, not just the super-admin, via configuration.
**Why is this needed**:
In this deployment context:
- grafana deployed from a continuous integration pipeline
- grafana setup spanning multiple organizations
- grafana deployed behind an authentication/authorization proxy
It is labor intensive and error prone to replicate all the org and user management performed in whatever directory system the auth(n|z) proxy uses in grafana.
Simplest thing to do is to be able to provision a structure of orgs and users inside grafana with one user provided with desired combinations of permissions, by org, have the proxy add a corresponding basic auth header to proxied requests, and have grafana only ever know about these provisioned orgs and users.
In such a scenario, everything in grafana will be read-only, since the CI pipeline should be the one controlling everything that gets deployed, including dashboards and data sources, so there is no point in using specific users for access to track changes - there simply won't be any changes.
Right now, the only way to do this is by having the CI pipeline configure everything via the HTTP API, after grafana was redeployed and started. This is cumbersome.

**What would you like to be added**:
Extend provisioning API to able to provisi… on teams.
**Why is this needed**:
Related to #12119, but team provisioning would provide an automated fine grained control within the same org.
