windows_task resource: allow non-system users without password for interactive taskstasks

- Minor changes in `validate_user_and_password` to support this feature
- `validate_interactive_setting` would no longer be needed
- Added test cases
- Added support to latest version of win32-taskscheduler gem (2.0.4)
- Fixes MSYS-924
