Description

When creating a new VM with 'New-AzVM' it will also install the BGInfo extension automatically

This will only happen if the '-VM' parameter is used to pass a virtual machine object. Even though BGInfo was not specified in the virtual machine object
New-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $rgname -Location $loc -VM $vmconfig

However, if you don't use the '-VM' parameter, then instead New-AzVM chooses default parameters and BGInfo is NOT installed
New-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $rgname -Location $loc' -Name VMname

You can see it here in New-AzVM source -
https://github.com/Azure/azure-powershell/blob/452b2d747938bf63361214f840baa35a114f2c95/src/Compute/Compute/VirtualMachine/Operation/NewAzureVMCommand.cs#L1195

The workaround is to use -DisableBginfoExtension, but that shouldn't be necessary since -VM isn't supposed to install BGInfo

Can we please change this so BGInfo does not automatically install?

@kegregoi This is an behavior left over from when this extension used to be default. We are working now to remove this default.
