With this Werk, omd create will emit different exit codes based on errors it encountered:

0 -> Site creation was successful. 1 -> An exception occured and the site creation was aborted. 2 -> An issue was detected that requires manual intervention to resolve.

Currently, the exit code 2 case is only triggered when a site user is unable to access crontab, which is required for a site to work properly.
