📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The user creation flow now sends password reset emails only to non-service-account users without usable passwords. New tests cover password states and email delivery.

Service account email condition care/emr/api/viewsets/user.py	UserViewSet.perform_create skips password reset emails for service accounts without usable passwords. Non-service-account users retain the existing behavior.
Creation email behavior tests care/emr/tests/test_user_api.py	Tests verify email delivery for passwordless regular users, no email for users with passwords, and no email for passwordless service accounts.

Add regression coverage for both email branches.

In care/emr/tests/test_user_api.py, create users with unusable passwords. Assert that send_password_reset_email is not called for service accounts and is called for regular users. Existing creation tests use usable passwords, so they do not cover this condition.
