When trying to build shadow in a different directory I stumbled upon few issues, this commit aims to fix all of them: - The `subid.h` file is generated and hence in the build directory and not in the source directory, so use `$(builddir)` instead of `$(srcdir)`. - Using `$<` instead of filenames utilises autotools to locate the files in either the source or build directory automatically. - `xsltproc` needs to access the files in login.defs.d in either the source directory or the symlink in a language subdirectory, but it does not interpret the `--path` as prefix of the entity path, but rather a path under which to locate the basename of the entity from the XML file. So specify the whole path to login.defs.d. - The above point could be used to make the symlinks of login.defs.d and entity path specifications in the XMLs obsolete, but I trying not to propose possibly disrupting patches, so for the sake of simplicity just specify `$(srcdir)` when creating the symlink.

shadow-utils
Introduction
The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command unconverts shadow passwords and generates a passwd file (a standard UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands are used for managing group accounts.
