This uses the logic defined in #6104 to allow running Powershell with a service account, i.e. setting
elevated_passwordto an empty value.Tested using a Powershell script that runs Puppet with
elevated_userset toSYSTEM. Previously Puppet didn't have sufficient permissions within the WinRM connection to install all packages/apply changes whereas now it seems to work properly. Ultimately I'd like to extract some of this elevated functionality to fix #5478 (except with thepuppet-serverprovisioner instead) however my familiarity with Windows internals is a tad lacking currently.Fixes #6104
