Comment (by johnbillion):

 Testing steps:

 * Call `wp_insert_user()` with at least `user_login` and `user_email`
 provided.
 * Confirm that all default meta fields are correctly inserted (several
 have an empty value by default):
    - `nickname`
    - `first_name`
    - `last_name`
    - `description`
    - `rich_editing`
    - `syntax_highlighting`
    - `comment_shortcuts`
    - `admin_color`
    - `use_ssl`
    - `show_admin_bar_front`
    - `locale`
 * Repeat with a `meta_input` field included to include custom user meta
 fields

 The `test_wp_insert_user_with_meta()` test covers this functionality and
 is sufficient for confirming that user meta data is saved when a user is
 created.

 Database queries:

 Before this change: 54
 After this change: 43

 As expected, this saves 11 database queries, one for each of the default
 meta values stored with every user.
