Description

Unlocking users from SAML/OIDC providers currently fails with this exception: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/uaa/blob/211b90e740e94cfb163aae8f4cec7757b895acba/server/src/main/java/org/cloudfoundry/identity/uaa/scim/endpoints/ScimUserEndpoints.java#L562

Ideally, it should be possible to unlock any user, regardless of their provider or origin.
