We now no longer have the stupid --service-helper option, which silences
messages about already existing organisations, users or groups.
Instead of that option, we now have a new subcommand called
"process-json", which accepts a JSON file directly from the specified
NixOS module options and creates/deletes the users accordingly.
Note that this still has a two issues left to solve in this area:
* Deletion is not supported yet.
* If a user is created imperatively, the next run of process-json will
delete it once deletion is supported.
So we need to implement deletion and a way to mark organisations, users
and groups as "imperatively managed".

The Click functions really are for the command line and should be solely
used for that.
What I have in mind is that instead of that crappy --service-helper
argument, we should really have a new subcommand that is expecting JSON
which is directly coming from the services.taskserver.organisations
module option.
That way we can decrease even more boilerplate and we can also ensure
that organisations, users and groups get properly deleted if they're
removed from the NixOS configuration.

In the comments of the pull request @nbp wrote:
"Why is it implemented in 3 different languages: Nix, Bash and C?"
And he's right, it doesn't make sense, because we were using C as a
runuser replacement and used Nix to generate the shellscript
boilerplates.
Writing this in Python gets rid of all of this and we also don't need
the boilerplate as well, because we're using Click to handle all the
command line stuff.
Note that this currently is a 1:1 implementation of what we had before.
