su: add --group and --supp-group options

These options allow to specify alternative groups. The command
su(1) has to be executed by root. The implementation is based on
Fedora runuser(1) command.

For example:

 # su --group=kzak --supp-group=uuidd -
 # id
 uid=0(root) gid=1000(kzak) groups=0(root),985(uuidd),1000(kzak)

non-root user:

 $ su --group=kzak -
 su: only root can specify alternative groups
