[OE-core] [PATCH V2 1/1] image.bbclass: add a method to add/delete/modify user/group settings

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen at windriver.com>

We may want to add a user or group which does not logically belong to
any specific package. For example, we may want to add a user with the
name 'tester' to our image. Besides, we may want to delete or modify
user/group in our image.

This patch adds a variable, USER_GROUP_SETTINGS, which is dedicated
to these tasks. The configuration format is detailed in the local.conf.
sample.extended file.

This patch also adds a function, set_user_group, which happens at
the end of the ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND. It handles the settings
in the USER_GROUP_SETTINGS variable.

This logic here is quite similar to that of useradd.bbclass. If we
need to add or modify user/group settings, base-passwd and shadow
are pulled into the RDEPENDS and thus installed on target.

[YOCTO #4074]
