subuid_count won't get used by usr_update(), but since we're passing it
as an argument we have to make sure it's always defined. So just define
it as pre-set to 0.

useradd generates an empty subid range when adding a new user. This is
caused because there are two variables, one local and the other one
global, that have a very similar name and they are used indistinctly in
the code. The local variable loads the SUB_*ID_COUNT configuration from
the login.defs file, while the global variable, which holds a value of
0, is used to generate the subid range. Causing the empty subid range
problem.
I've merged the two variables in the local one and removed the global
variable. I prefer to do it this way to reduce the scope of it but I'm
open to doing it the other way round.

Since bbf4b79, we stopped shipping /etc/default/useradd, and therefore
install of shadow does not auto-create /etc/default. So when useradd
tries to save a new default, it needs to create the directory.

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().

Search the SELinux selabel database for the file type to be created.
Not specifying the file mode can cause an incorrect file context to be
returned.
Also prepare contexts in commonio_close() for the generic database
filename, not with the backup suffix appended, to ensure the desired
file context after the final rename.

Currently, supplying a relative path via the --prefix flag to the
useradd command triggers a bug in the creation of home directories. The
code seems to unintentionally prepend a leading "/" to all paths,
quietly transforming a relative prefixed home path into an absolute
path. This can be seen in the following strace logs from running
"useradd --create-home --prefix tmp/root squat":
```
access("tmp/root//home/squat", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/mp", F_OK) = 0
access("/mp/root", F_OK) = 0
access("/mp/root/home", F_OK) = 0
access("/mp/root/home/squat", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
mkdir("/mp/root/home/squat", 000) = 0
chown("/mp/root/home/squat", 0, 0) = 0
chmod("/mp/root/home/squat", 0755) = 0
chown("tmp/root//home/squat", 1000, 1000) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
chmod("tmp/root//home/squat", 0700) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
```
Note that the relative path is correctly probed in the beginning and it
is only during the recursive creation that the path is turned into an
absolute path. This invocation results in the creation of a "/mp"
hierarchy in the root of the filesystem.
Similar problems occur when using `--prefix ./tmp/root`.
This commit fixes the handling of relative paths by not assuming that
the given path is anchored with a "/".

This option can be used to set a separate mode for useradd(8) and
newusers(8) to create the home directories with.
If this option is not set, the current behavior of using UMASK
or the default umask is preserved.
There are many distributions that set UMASK to 077 by default just
to create home directories not readable by others and use things like
/etc/profile, bashrc or sudo configuration files to set a less
restrictive
umask. This has always resulted in bug reports because it is hard
to follow as users tend to change files like bashrc and are not about
setting the umask to counteract the umask set in /etc/login.defs.
A recent change in sudo has also resulted in many bug reports about
this. sudo now tries to respect the umask set by pam modules and on
systems where pam does not set a umask, the login.defs UMASK value is
used.
This commit adds a from= field to the end of the useradd log entry.

new switch added to useradd command, --btrfs-subvolume-home. When
specified *and* the filesystem is detected as btrfs, it will create a
subvolume for user's home instead of a plain directory. This is done via
`btrfs subvolume` command. Specifying the new switch while trying to
create home on non-btrfs will result in an error.
userdel -r will handle and remove this subvolume transparently via
`btrfs subvolume` command. Previosuly this failed as you can't rmdir a
subvolume.
usermod, when moving user's home across devices, will detect if the home
is a subvolume and issue an error messages instead of copying it. Moving
user's home (as subvolume) on same btrfs works transparently.
As the large uids are usually provided by remote user identity and
authentication service, which also provide user login tracking,
there is no need to create a huge sparse file for them on every local
machine.
fixup! login.defs: Add LASTLOG_UID_MAX variable to limit lastlog to small uids.
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.
