                               throws AlreadyExistsException
        Creates and saves the new user vcard. This method should throw an UnsupportedOperationException if this operation is not supported by the backend vcard store. The method is expected to return the vCard after it has had a chance to make any modifications to it that it needed to. In many cases, this may be a simple return of the passed in vCard. This change was made in 3.4.4.

        username - the username.
        vCardElement - the vCard to save.
        Returns:
        vCard as it is after the provider has a chance to adjust it.
        Throws:
        AlreadyExistsException - if the user already has a vCard.
        UnsupportedOperationException - if the provider does not support the operation.
