Option to show allowed terms as checkboxes

Problem/Motivation

With a larger vocabulary where each user has multiple allowed terms selected in their user edit form if a site manager accidentally doesn't hold down the Ctrl or Cmd key when clicking on a new term they're adding, all the terms that were previously selected get lost. This is a nightmare for sites with lots of users and lots of terms.

Steps to reproduce

1. Have a vocabulary with many terms.
2. Edit the user to add a new term.
3. Accidentally click on the new term without holding the Ctrl/Cmd key.

Proposed resolution

Create an option to output the list of terms as Checkboxes so that each term is independently an on/off check and will not be affected by other terms.

    I have introduced an option for choosing the checkboxes output in the module's config and also a conditional for outputting the terms in checkboxes in the user form.

    Please apply the patch and review.

    The patch applied cleanly, and the new option works a treat! Thank you for addressing this issue — this option makes the module much more feasible now.
