Richard Purdie b5c383074a base-passwd/useradd: Various improvements to useradd with RSS
Currently there are multiple issues with useradd:

* If base-passwd rebuilds, it wipes out recipe specific user/group additions
  to sysroots and causes errors
* If recipe A adds a user and recipe B depends on A, it can't see any of the
  users/groups A adds.

This patch changes base-passwd so it always works as a postinst script
within the sysroot and copies in the master files, then runs any
postinst-useradd-* scripts afterwards to add additional user/groups.

The postinst-useradd-* scripts are tweaked so that if /etc/passwd doesn't exist
they just exit, knowning they'll be executed later. We also add a dummy entry to
the dummy passwd file from pseudo so we can avoid this too.

There is a problem where if recipe A adds a user and recipe B depends on A but
doesn't care about users, it may not have a dependency on the useradd/groupadd
tools which would therefore not be available in B's sysroot. We therefore also
tweak postinst-useradd-* scripts so that if the tools aren't present we simply
don't add users. If you need the users, you add a dependency on the tools in the
recipe and they'll be added.

We add postinst-* to SSTATE_SCAN_FILES since almost any postinst script of this
kind is going to need relocation help.

We also ensure that the postinst-useradd script is written into the sstate
object as the current script was only being added in a recipe local way.

Thanks to Peter Kjellerstedt <pkj@axis.com> and Patrick Ohly for some pieces
of this patch.

README

Poky
====

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as 
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information 
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a 
reference manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.

For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
    http://www.openembedded.org/

Where to Send Patches
=====================

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer),
patches against the various components should be sent to their respective
upstreams:

bitbake:
    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
    Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

documentation:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
    Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org

meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp)
    Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org

Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list.  If in
doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
repository.

    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
    Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org

Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of
oe-core and poky-specific files.
