The groupadd from shadow does not allow upper case group names, the
same is true for the upstream shadow. But distributions like
Debian/Ubuntu/CentOS has their own way to cope with this problem,
this patch is picked up from CentOS release 7.0 to relax the usernames
restrictions to allow the upper case group names, and the relaxation is
POSIX compliant because POSIX indicate that usernames are composed of
characters from the portable filename character set [A-Za-z0-9._-].

When building shadow-native, syslog was disabled for useradd and
groupadd. This disables it also for groupdel, groupmems, groupmod,
userdel and usermod (i.e., the use of syslog is now disabled for all
commands supported by useradd_base.bbclass).

<title>shadow: fix `su' behaviour</title>

0001-su.c-fix-to-exec-command-correctly.patch is removed. Below is the reason.
This patch is introduced to solve the 'su: applet not found' problem when
executing `su -l xxx -c env'. The patch references codes of previous release
of shadow. However, this patch introduces bug#5359. So it's not correct.

Let's first look at the root cause of 'su: applet not found' problem.
This problem appears when /bin/sh is provided by busybox.
When executing `su -l xxx -c env' command, the following function is invoked.
    execve("/bin/sh", ["-su", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])
Note that the argv[0] provided to new executable file (/bin/sh) is "-su".
As /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/busybox. It's /bin/busybox that is executed.
In busybox's appletlib.c, it would examine argv[0], try to find an applet
that has the same name, and then try to execute the main function of the
applet. This logic results in `su' applet from busybox to be executed.
However, we default to set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "1", so 'su' is not found.
Further more, even if we set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "0", so that 'su' applet
is found. The whole behaviour is still not correct. Because 'su' from shadow
takes higher priority than that from busybox, so 'su' from busybox should never
be executed on such system unless it's specified clearly by the end user.
The logic of busybox's appletlib.c is totally correct from the point of busybox
itself. It's an integration problem.

To solve the above problem, this patch comment out SU_NAME in /etc/login.defs
so that the final function executed in shadow's su is as below.
    execve("/bin/sh", ["-sh", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])

The rootfs creator automatically removes shadow for read-only
root filesystems, which breaks use of PAM plugins for login and
other process identity management utilities.  Package those programs
and config files separately, so they don't get removed.

<title>shadow: add 'util-linux-sulogin' to RDEPENDS</title>

If shadow is installed, sulogin from busybox cannot work correctly because
it still assumes that /etc/shadow is not there. This leads to the problem
when booting into rescue mode in an image with shadow installed but not
sulogin from util-linux.

To fix this problem, we add 'util-linux-sulogin' to RDEPENDS of shadow.
This runtime dependency is specific to OE, because we have to ensure
that sulogin can work correctly and sulogin from busybox cannot because
FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWORDS is not enabled by default. And we cannot enable
it by default for busybox, because that would lead to utilities in busybox
to assume the existence of /etc/shadow which is not always true in OE.
