unshare: Fix "you (user xxxx) don't exist" error when uid differs from primary gid

This problem affected the --map-auto and --map-groups=auto command-line switches.
The root cause is that /etc/subgid is indexed by user or uid, not by group or gid;
therefore, we should be using the effective uid to find entries in this file, just
as we do for /etc/subuid.
