Add manual pages for new utilities. Add front-end calling from user(8) and group(8) accordingly. + Make all functions visible outside the user.c file again. User and group manipulation may be split out into a separate shared lib in the future + Split off main function into a separate main.c + Changed default group to be "users" + Changed despatch table for commands to work in a more sane manner + Added "default-group" target to Makefile, so that the default group can be made easily.
