07ce2a90b3 Do not rely on malloc() to zero-fill allocated memory, since it is
not documented as doing so.  This fixes a potential segmentation
violation.

9d1163f7c3 Move call to umask(0) back into pw_util(), because the latter
function is also used by chpass(1) and passwd(1).

2ece3ed4c8 Force umask to 077 (instead of 000) during the edit phase, to get
secure permissions in case the user attempts to save something to
a file of his own.

Move umask stuff out of pw_init() into main() for better visibility
of overall umask tweaking logic.

posix standard on the topic.

79a1b8d9e2 Implement incremental passwd database updates. This is done by ading a '-u'
option to pwd_mkdb and adding this option to utilities invoking it.
Further, the filling of both the secure and insecure databases has been
merged into one loop giving also a performance improvemnet.
Note that I did *not* change the adduser command. I don't read perl
(it is a write only language anyway).
The change will drastically improve performance for passwd and
friends with large passwd files. Vipw's performance won't change.
In order to do that some kind of diff should be made between the
old and new master.passwd and depending the amount of changes, an
incremental or complete update of the databases should be agreed
upon.
