Alejandro Colomar bddcd9b095 Remove superfluous casts
-  Every non-const pointer converts automatically to void *.
-  Every pointer converts automatically to void *.
-  void * converts to any other pointer.
-  const void * converts to any other const pointer.
-  Integer variables convert to each other.

I changed the declaration of a few variables in order to allow removing
a cast.

However, I didn't attempt to edit casts inside comparisons, since they
are very delicate.  I also kept casts in variadic functions, since they
are necessary, and in allocation functions, because I have other plans
for them.

I also changed a few casts to int that are better as ptrdiff_t.

This change has triggered some warnings about const correctness issues,
which have also been fixed in this patch (see for example src/login.c).

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.
