Parametizing auid's in the upstream code seems like the right thing to
do. Especially if you'd have to do it anyway for a local fork (which
would be hell to maintain).

We can expose the parameter internally to the XCCDF and have the default
value be the operating system default of 1000.

Sébastien - If you're willing to work on this, happy to help with
guidance on how to get started in the SSG codebase. Let us know.
