Closes#325
Add a new subid_init() function which can be used to specify the
stream on which error messages should be printed. (If you want to
get fancy you can redirect that to memory :) If subid_init() is
not called, use stderr. If NULL is passed, then /dev/null will
be used.
This patch also fixes up the 'Prog', which previously had to be
defined by any program linking against libsubid. Now, by default
in libsubid it will show (subid). Once subid_init() is called,
it will use the first variable passed to subid_init().

This retrieved context is just passed to libselinux functions and not
printed or otherwise made available to the outside, so a context
translation to human readable MCS/MLS labels is not needed.

Closes#185
If vipw is suspended (e.g. via control-Z) and then resumed, it often gets
immediately suspended. This is easier to reproduce on a multi-core system.
root@buster:~# /usr/sbin/vipw
[1]+ Stopped /usr/sbin/vipw
root@buster:~# fg
/usr/sbin/vipw
[1]+ Stopped /usr/sbin/vipw
root@buster:~# fg
[vipw resumes on the second fg]
The problem is that vipw forks a child process and calls waitpid() with the
WUNTRACED flag. When the child process (running the editor) is suspended, the
parent sends itself SIGSTOP to suspend the main vipw process. However, because
the main vipw is in the same process group as the editor which received the ^Z,
the kernel already sent the main vipw SIGTSTP.
If the main vipw receives SIGTSTP before the child, it will be suspended and
then, once resumed, will proceed to suspend itself again.
To fix this, run the child process in its own process group as the foreground
process group. That way, control-Z will only affect the child process and the
parent can use the existing logic to suspend the parent.
Some distributions, notably Fedora, have the following order of nsswitch
modules by default:
passwd: sss files
group: sss files
The advantage of serving local users through SSSD is that the nss_sss
module has a fast mmapped-cache that speeds up NSS lookups compared to
accessing the disk an opening the files on each NSS request.
Traditionally, this has been done with the help of nscd, but using nscd
in parallel with sssd is cumbersome, as both SSSD and nscd use their own
independent caching, so using nscd in setups where sssd is also serving
users from some remote domain (LDAP, AD, ...) can result in a bit of
unpredictability.
More details about why Fedora chose to use sss before files can be found
on e.g.:
https://fedoraproject.org//wiki/Changes/SSSDCacheForLocalUsers
or:
https://docs.pagure.org/SSSD.sssd/design_pages/files_provider.html
Now, even though sssd watches the passwd and group files with the help
of inotify, there can still be a small window where someone requests a
user or a group, finds that it doesn't exist, adds the entry and checks
again. Without some support in shadow-utils that would explicitly drop
the sssd caches, the inotify watch can fire a little late, so a
combination of commands like this:
getent passwd user || useradd user; getent passwd user
can result in the second getent passwd not finding the newly added user
as the racy behaviour might still return the cached negative hit from
the first getent passwd.
This patch more or less copies the already existing support that
shadow-utils had for dropping nscd caches, except using the "sss_cache"
tool that sssd ships.
