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:
```
man❌6:12::/var/cache/man:/sbin/nologin
```
and in group:
```
disk❌6:
man❌12:
```

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.

sysusers: make ADD_GROUP always create a group

Do not merge group creation with user creation because with the
new uid:gid syntax this can result in confusing (and unwanted)
behavior.
