IMPORTANT: this change has a docs/UPDATING entry!
This change is a long overdue switch-over from the old MINIX set of
user and group accounts to the NetBSD set. This switch-over is
increasingly important now that we are importing more and more
utilities from NetBSD, several of which expect various user accounts
to exist. By switching over in one go, we save ourselves various
headaches in the long run, even if the switch-over itself is a bit
painful for existing MINIX users.
The newly imported master.passwd and group files have three exceptions
compared to their NetBSD originals:
1. There is a custom "service" account for MINIX 3 services. This
account is used to limit run-time privileges of various system
services, and is not used for any files on disk. Its user ID may
be changed later, but should always correspond to whatever the
SERVICE_UID definition is set to.
2. The user "bin" has its shell set to /bin/sh, instead of NetBSD's
/sbin/nologin. The reason for this is that the test set in
/usr/tests/minix-posix will not be able to run otherwise.
3. The group "operator" has been set to group ID 0, to match its old
value. This tweak is purely for transitioning purposes: as of
writing, pkgsrc packages are still using root:operator as owner and
group for most installed files. Sometime later, we can change back
"operator" to group ID 5 without breaking anything, because it does
not appear that this group name is used for anything important.

This brings our tree to NetBSD 7.0, as found on -current on the
10-10-2015.
This updates:
- LLVM to 3.6.1
- GCC to GCC 5.1
- Replace minix/commands/zdump with usr.bin/zdump
- external/bsd/libelf has moved to /external/bsd/elftoolchain/
- Import ctwm
- Drop sprintf from libminc
Change-Id: I149836ac18e9326be9353958bab9b266efb056f0
- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

The tested targets are the followgin ones:
* tools
* distribution
* sets
* release
The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.
For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.
Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
* Read share/mk/bsd.README
* If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
* Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
* Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
life easier, do not fight it.
Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"
