The bug
As an admin when I create three (3) additional users. After that, the system throughs an error if you want to create more users.

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to 'Settings'
Click on 'Users'
Add A New User 'Click Add New User button', and now add more than three (3) ADMINS until it Barks at you!.
See error

**Illuminate\Database\QueryException**
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '' for key 'users.users_slug_unique' (SQL: insert into `users` (`name`, `email`, `password`, `updated_at`, `created_at`) values (xtimx, xtimx@gmail.com, $2y$10$3VZvuaT9oG/.O9n7Cs4R../oFLxf7W9cgio0w3IsqyrJ8DGHj2rH6, 2021-06-28 13:45:27, 2021-06-28 13:45:27))

Expected behavior
I expect to have the ability to create as much user/admin as needed without errors.

Hi @aroldjacx,
I'm pretty sure your BookStack codebase and database state versions have got muddled here. Have you pehaps done some level of restore or attempted an upgrade to a more recent version? The column reported in the issue thrown was added in a later BookStack release than that shown in your reported version number.

@aroldjacx I don't think it's complete, That version of BookStack is a few months old. It depends on the errors that occured upon upgrade. Do you get any errors when running the upgrade command?
