[VM/VMSS] Create Appears to Hang After "Admin Password" Prompt #790

Description

I tried creating a VM scale set with minimal parameters using:

az vmss create -g myrg -n vmss1

It prompted me for an admin password. Once I entered it, I was expecting it to confirm my password (because basically every password prompt in existence does so) and instead it just hung. I eventually used Ctrl+C to break out of the process.

I tried it again and got a "change property 'adminPassword' is not allowed" which suggested that it in fact succeeded. Looking in the portal this was indeed that case.

Apparently, after I entered my password, while I was expecting to have to re-enter the password it started the long running operation and I assumed it had hung.

I would recommend adding the password confirmation logic and adding the "Starting vmss create..." blurb to avoid confusion.
