VM agent installed even if -ProvisionVMAgent isn't specified, or -ProvisionVMAgent:$false specified #5101
Description
Cmdlet(s): Set-AzureRmVMOperatingSystem
PowerShell Version: 5.1.16299.64
Module Version: AzureRM.Compute 4.0.1 (November 2017 release)
OS Version: 10.0.16299.64
Description
-ProvisionVMAgent is a switch, so you would expect that if you don't specify it at all, the value is not True, and the VM agent will not be installed. But if you don't specify it, or if you explicitly specify it as False (-ProvisionVMAgent:$false) - VM agent is still installed.
Compare that to if you do a template deployment where your template specifies "provisionVMAgent": false - VM agent is not installed as expected with a template deployment.

Script/Steps for Reproduction
$vmConfig = New-AzureRmVMConfig -VMName $vmName -VMSize $vmSize | Set-AzureRmVMOperatingSystem -Windows -ComputerName $vmName -Credential $cred -ProvisionVMAgent:$false | Set-AzureRmVMSourceImage -PublisherName $publisherName -Offer $offer -Skus $skus -Version $version | Add-AzureRmVMNetworkInterface -Id $nic.Id
New-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Location $location -VM $vmConfig
Example template where "provisionVMAgent": false in the template works as expected in that the VM agent does not get installed -
