[slurm-users] Accounting configuration

[Thomas M. Payerle]

Generally, the add, modify, etc sacctmgr
commands want an "user" or "account" entity, but can modify associations
though this.

E.g., if user baduser should have GrpTRESmin of cpu=1000 set on partition
special, use something like
sacctmgr add user name=baduser partition=special account=testacct
grptresmin=cpu=1000
if there is no association for that user, account and partition already, or
sacctmgr modify user where user=baduser partition=special  set
grptresmin=cpu=1000

To place the restriction on an account instead, add/modify the account with
a partition field.
