Michael Vogt b9ee05c266 sysusers: allow force reusing existing user/group IDs (#8037)
On Debian/Ubuntu systems the default passwd/group files use a
slightly strange mapping. E.g. in passwd:
```
man6:12::/var/cache/man:/sbin/nologin
```
and in group:
```
disk6:
man12:
```

This is not supported in systemd-sysusers right now because
sysusers will not re-use an existing uid/gid in its normal
mode of operation. Unfortunately this reuse is needed to
replicate the default Debian/Ubuntu users/groups.

This commit enforces reuse when the "uid:gid" syntax is used
to fix this.

I also added a test that replicates the Debian base-passwd
passwd/group file to ensure things are ok.

Michael Vogt 28e7fad73f sysusers: ensure GID in uid:gid syntax exists
Ensure that the GID already exists or is created when the new
"uid:gid" syntax is used. This ensures the behaviour is always
predictable.

Michael Vogt 1e589ed264 test: add TEST-21-SYSUSERS test
This test tests the systemd-sysuser binary via the --root=$TESTDIR
option and ensures that for the given inputs the expected passwd
and group files will be generated.
