[COMMITTED] tst-getpw.c: Rewrite.

- Subject: [COMMITTED] tst-getpw.c: Rewrite.
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
The tst-getpw test iterates over 2000 UIDs to look
for one valid one, and one invalid one to test the
getpw function.
The test should stop immediately after it finds
one of each of the testable conditions and terminate
with an appropriate exit code.
On one of my test boxes the local configuration for
NSS is slow enough (sssd over the network) that the test
times out sporadically.
With the rewrite we now test for:
- EINVAL as expected for invalid input.
- One UID that maps.
- One UID that doesn't map.
- Check for other errno values that we don't expect.
This should make the test faster and more stable since
there is bound to be a files-based UID that isn't used
and can be used for the test (rather than going into
the high-numbered UIDs). In the event the system is totally
broken we only iterate over the range of 16-bit UIDs.
Tested on x86_64.
Cheers,
Carlos.
