The "with-mkhomedir" option is related to the use-case where the user
is joined to an identity management environment (like freeipa or
active directory).
So, in this case, with-mkhomedir would create the user's home
directory based on the LDAP setup and so on.

For local users, it doesn't matter, as this part won't be managed by SSSD.

The equivalent option from authconfig would be: "--enablemkhomedir"
which was never used before in our scripts, so we're safe to not pass
it :-)
