Fix the --root option in shadow-native programs
The add_root_cmd_options.patch that we apply to shadow-native allow the
various programs from the shadow utility package to chroot() so they can
be used to modify etc/passwd and etc/group if they are located in a
sysroot.
Some of the shadow programs (gpasswd, useradd and usermod) need to parse
the command line in two passes. But we can't use getopt_long() twice
because getopt_long() reorders the command line arguments, and
consequently corrupts the option parsing during the second pass.
This patch fixes this issue by replacing the first pass by a very simple
manual walk of the command line to handle the --root argument.
This change is a patch of another patch, I apologize if it is
difficult to read. But IMHO it wouldn't make sense to put the patch for
this issue in another separated file.
The --root options in groupadd and useradd are needed to make the
useradd class work, and this issue was preventing to use useradd and
groupadd long options while using the class.
