is it common practice on BSD to rsync /etc/passwd around? Maybe bsd
could go back to using /etc/passwd?

daemon: don't source user list from wtmp
wtmp can get rather large on some systems from ssh logins.
Furthermore it's pretty much completely redundant given the user
cache in /var/lib/AccountService
This commit changes the wtmp code to only get used for maintaining
login

daemon: constrain max local users to 50
Systems with tens of thousands of users don't want all those users
showing up in the user list.
Set a cap at an even 50, which should cover the lion's share of use
cases well. Of course, if a user not in the list explicitly

i'm going to push these patches to master. They're loosely based on
ritz work in this bug, but they diverge in some significant ways:
1) i set a limit on the number of local users returned (ala comment 2)
2) i redid the wheel check to avoid needing an admin user cache
3) i cache shadow

daemon: get local users from /etc/shadow not /etc/passwd
For some sites, it's common practice to rsync around large
/etc/passwd files containing the password entries for remote
users. That means accountsservices' "assume /etc/passwd is local
users" heuristic falls over.
Same on OpenBSD. Since that change, accountsservice is broken here as
well.

user: check if user is in wheel more efficiently
We currently get all the groups a user belongs to in one pass,
then check each one to see if it's wheel.
It's much more efficient to just get the wheel group and check if
any of its members are the user.

daemon: don't call getspnam for local users
We're already iterating over the whole shadow file, so
just cache the entries instead of calling getspname a
few lines later.

Unconditioned #include breaks the build on FreeBSD.
FreeBSD doesn't have shadow.h and /etc/shadow. Hashed passwords are
stored in /etc/master.passwd, which is a /etc/passwd with additional
fields. There is no API specifically made to read /etc/master.passwd
because getpwent on FreeBSD
oneiric has seen the end of its life and is no longer receiving any
updates. Marking the oneiric task for this ticket as Won't Fix.
