Subject: [PATCH] fix: ensure pulse user is created during updates

- Add create_user() call to update flow (option 1)
- Add create_user() call to reinstall flow (option 2)
- Fixes 'chown: invalid user: pulse:pulse' error on older installations
- Ensures smooth migration from root/other users to pulse user
