Move tridge's getgrouplist() replacement function from replace.c to a new
'system_smbd.c' file, where it can link with become_root() and unbecome_root(), and therefore avoiding some nasty 'it workes on linux' bugs. (The replacement function is implemented in terms of initgroups(), which is naturally only avaliable to root). Andrew Bartlett (This used to be commit a91018dd026be3db473bb1cf1f4981295f9758e4)
