lib: (pwdutils.c) new library routines to get a group/passwd struct by name or GID/UID

In some tools users can specify groups/users by their name but not
the GID or UID. To enable this in a trivial manner util-linux tools
can now call the ul_getgrp_str(), ul_getuserpw_str(), xgetgroup()
and xgetuserpw() routines to achieve this.
