Document that the default group has to exist
After calling ipa config --defaultgroup=xxx with nonexistent group xxx, the result will be that no new user can be added. The operation will always fail in the middle because it is not possible to add the new user to desired default group. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=654117#c4
