fix spurious errors from pwd/grp functions when nscd backend is absent for several pwd/grp functions, the only way the caller can distinguish between a successful negative result ("no such user/group") and an internal error is by clearing errno before the call and checking errno afterwards. the nscd backend support code correctly simulated a not-found response on systems where such a backend is not running, but failed to restore errno. this commit also fixed an outdated/incorrect comment.

avoid sending huge names as nscd passwd/group queries overly long user/group names are potentially a DoS vector and source of other problems like partial writes by sendmsg, and not useful.

simplify nscd lookup code for alt passwd/group backends previously, a sentinel value of (FILE *)-1 was used to inform the caller of __nscd_query that nscd is not in use. aside from being an ugly hack, this resulted in duplicate code paths for two logically equivalent cases: no nscd, and "not found" result from nscd. now, __nscd_query simply skips closing the socket and returns a valid FILE pointer when nscd is not in use, and produces a fake "not found" response header. the caller is then responsible for closing the socket just like it would do if it had gotten a real "not found" response.

support alternate backends for the passwd and group dbs when we fail to find the entry in the commonly accepted files, we query a server over a Unix domain socket on /var/run/nscd/socket. the protocol used here is compatible with glibc's nscd protocol on most systems (all that use 32-bit numbers for all the protocol fields, which appears to be everything but Alpha).
