I prefer to use a "samba-tool user upn add|delete|list" command in place of
"samba-tool spn" because samba-tool user has options -H and -filter , the
spn only use ldb, no remote access.

See  "samba-tool domain classicupgrade (--add-upn)" --add-upn is a optional
switch to add the UPN to each migrate user.
