[PATCH V2 1/1] image.bbclass: add a method to add/delete/modify user/group settings

[Qi.Chen]

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com>

We may want to add a user or group which does not logically belong to
any specific package. For example, we may want to add a user with the
name 'tester' to our image. Besides, we may want to delete or modify
user/group in our image.

This patch adds a variable, USER_GROUP_SETTINGS, which is dedicated
to these tasks. The configuration format is detailed in the local.conf.
sample.extended file.

This patch also adds a function, set_user_group, which happens at
the end of the ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND. It handles the settings
in the USER_GROUP_SETTINGS variable.

This logic here is quite similar to that of useradd.bbclass. If we
need to add or modify user/group settings, base-passwd and shadow
are pulled into the RDEPENDS and thus installed on target.

After seeing the poky-tiny changes, which I will NAK, I am going to 
recommend that we need to share a common base between this and the 
existing useradd bbclass since you are both doing the same work.

Also, I think what ever the top level looks like, it should be in a 
class of it's own that can be inherited, such that it won't affect other 
images, like a tiny or other distros that don't include login support.

I understand the difference and usage of useradd is targeting packages 
and feeds, while this work is targeted towards customizing a final image 
that is not truly part of the package feed.

Sau!

Thanks for your suggestion. That's definitely a better approach.
I'll rework on this feature.
