Description

One of our requirements is to be able to lookup users by on-prem SAM account name, given it's the attribute that changes the least for a user across the organisation. For example, mail nickname might not be deterministic and email/UPN might vary across AD Domains for a single user.

Being able to rely on a more deeply rooted (and hence static-ish) field to reference a user by, simplifies the process of creating config "variations" such as test environments.

In order to achieve this, the User and Users Data Sources, have to support looking up users by on-premise SAM account name.
