Fixed issue in create_user

[crazyscientist]

The function assumed that User.get_by_type_and_id returns a User instance or None. However, this called method raises a helios_auth.models.User.DoesNotExist exception.

This commit changes the behavior of create_user to match the behavior of User.get_by_type_and_id.

Note: I only tested this with Python 3.10 and Django 2.2¹

1. I'm fairly sure, that more recent Django versions behave identically. ↩
