resolve differing createUser() test methods

Problem/Motivation

This is a follow-on from #3224276: Move useful helper methods for working with entities from EntityKernelTestBase to KernelTestBase , in the interest of keeping that issue simple.

There is a confusing mishmash of test methods called createUser():

- Drupal\Tests\user\Traits\UserCreationTrait has createUser() with 4 params, which we'll refer to as createUser4: createUser(array $permissions = [], $name = NULL, $admin = FALSE, array $values = [])
- EntityKernelTestBase has createUser() with 2 params, which we'll refer to as createUser2: createUser($values = [], $permissions = [])
- EntityKernelTestBase imports UserCreationTrait, aliasing createUser as drupalCreateUser
- some child classes of KernelTestBase import UserCreationTrait, and some of them do the same aliasing, and some don't

Proposed resolution

Figure out how to end up in a situation where KernelTestBase imports UserCreationTrait, including createUser() without aliasing.

This is going to be difficult because the methods are incompatible. See https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3224276#comment-14681959 for detatils.
