    useradd-staticids: don't create username-group if gid is specified
    
    Adding distcc to an image, and having staticids enabled,
    doesn't work as it causes a a superfluous 'distcc' group
    being added using a conflicting  GID, thus failing the
    build:
     | ERROR: distcc-3.2-r0 do_prepare_recipe_sysroot: distcc: groupadd command did not succeed.
    
    Compared to other recipes, the distcc recipe only
    specifies --gid for the primary group, and doesn't specify
    --no-user-group, but when --gid is given, it doesn't make
    sense to create a matching username-group in addition,
    even if --no-user-group was not specified, and 'useradd'
    actually complains if --gid and --user-group are given
    both.
    
    If only --gid is given, the current code in here
    effectively behaves as if --user-group was specified,
    taking the group-id of the username-group from the
    --gid parameter. This causes the error above, as we try
    to add a new group (distcc) with an existing group-id
    (nogroup).
    
    This is contrary to the comment in this file just above,
    contrary to what useradd can do, contrary to behaviour
    without the useradd-staticids bbclass, and non-intuitive.
    
    Change the code such that a username-group is only created
    - if a primary group using --gid was not specified, or
    - if --no-user-group was not specified
    
    To be in line with useradd, if gid is not given, and
    --no-user-group is given, we add the user to the group
    'users', which mimics useradd's behaviour.
