Incorrect value of 'remoteUser' cannot be fixed

See original GitHub issue

Repro state:

  1. Create a sample project with ‘devcontainer.json’ in it
  2. Modify ‘devcontainer.json’ to include: "remoteUser": "helloRoot"
  3. Run ‘npx devcontainer up …’, to see an expected error message: “Shell server terminated unable to find user helloRoot”
  4. Modify ‘devcontainer.json’ and fix the spelling of the remote user: "remoteUser": "root"
  5. Run ‘npx devcontainer up’ again.

This command will not succeed – even though ‘devcontainer.json’ file was fixed.

@chrmarti Does https://github.com/devcontainers/cli/pull/254 (issue https://github.com/devcontainers/cli/pull/252) solve this problem? Seems like the same set of behaviors.
