[OE-core] [RFC PATCH 2/2] useradd.bbclass: Add ability to select a static uid/gid automatically

[YOCTO #5436]

Automatic selection of static uid/gid is needed for a dynamically generated
passwd and group file to have a deterministic outcome.

When a package is installed and instructs the system to add a new user or
group, unless it selects a static uid/gid value, the next available uid/gid
will be used.  The order in which packages are installed is dynamically
computed, and may change from one installation to the next.  This results
in a non-deterministic set of uid/gid values.

Enabling USERADD_REWRITE_PARAMS, and providing a preconfigured passwd/group
file will allow the continued dynamic generation of the passwd/group file
on the target, but ensure a deterministic outcome.  (Dynamic generation is
desired so that user and groups that have no corresponding functionality
are not present within the final system image.)
