Josiah Worcester 2894a44b40 add alternate backend support for getgrouplist
This completes the alternate backend support that was previously added
to the getpw* and getgr* functions. Unlike those, though, it
unconditionally queries nscd. Any groups from nscd that aren't in the
/etc/groups file are added to the returned list, and any that are
present in the file are ignored. The purpose of this behavior is to
provide a view of the group database consistent with what is observed
by the getgr* functions. If group memberships reported by nscd were
honored when the corresponding group already has a definition in the
/etc/groups file, the user's getgrouplist-based membership in the
group would conflict with their non-membership in the reported
gr_mem[] for the group.

The changes made also make getgrouplist thread-safe and eliminate its
clobbering of the global getgrent state.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
