Two PRs (152084 & 210187) request allowing the "@" and/or "!"
characters in the passwd file GECOS field. The man page for pw does
not mention that those characters are disallowed, Linux supports those
characters in this field, and the "@" character in particular would be
useful for storing email addresses in that field.

Fix it and rename misnamed time_t variables `expire_days, password_days'
(always holding absolute time) to `expire_time, password_time'.
Add a comment for a case of overloading `cmdcnf->password_days'
and `cmdcnf->expire_days' with absolute time.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
Previouly it was possible to create users with spaces in the name with:
pw useradd -u 1234 -g 1234 -n 'test user'
The "-g 1234" is relevant, without it the name was already rejected
as expected:
[fk@test ~]$ sudo pw useradd -u 1234 -n 'test user'
pw: invalid character ` ' at position 4 in userid/group name
Bug unintentionally found with a salt config without explicit name entry:
test user:
user.present:
- uid: 1234
- gid: 1234
- fullname: Test user
- shell: /usr/local/bin/bash
- home: /home/test
- groups:
- wheel
- salt
"Luckily" salt modules rarely bother with input validation either ...

"pw usermod someuser -G ''" is supposed make sure that someuser
doesn't have any secondary group memberships.
Previouly it was a nop because split_groups() only intitialised
"groups" if at least one group was specified. As a result the
existing secondary group memberships were kept.

relax it a bit so gecos can be used to store multibytes data.
This was unseen before FreeBSD 10.2 as this validation function was motly unused
since FreeBSD 10.2 the usage of this function has been generalized to improve
validation.

Now each subcommands checks its arguments in a dedicated functions.
This helps improving input validation, code readability/maintainability
While here:
- Add a -y option to pw userdel/usermod so it can maintain NIS servers if
nispasswd is not defined in pw.conf(5)
- Allow pw -r <rootdir> to remove directory with userdel -r
- Fix bug when renaming a user which was not renaming the user name it groups
it is a member of.
- Only parse pw.conf(5) when needed.

This allows to simplify the code a bit for -R by not having to keep modifying

While here, add regression tests for the functionality
