Readd the function to create the parents home directory if it does not exists.
if it is only a directory at the top level of the hierarchy symlink it into /usr
as it used to be done before.

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.
supposed to be manipulated
This prevent pw usermod creating a new local user when requesting to usermod on
a username is defined in LDAP.
This issue only happens when modifying the local user database (not inpacting
commands when -V or -R are used).

Rewrite rm_r to use *at function, allowing to remove home directories along with
users. only crontabs and at(1) installation are not removed
Relnotes: yes
functions
This allows to simplify the code a bit for -R by not having to keep modifying
path and also prepare the code to improve support -R in userdel
While here, add regression tests for the functionality
While the return code is broken, some corner case usage depends on the
functionnality, so backout until we get better regression tests covering those
corner case usage.
the intent of -q in this command is to return as exit status the value of the
next group/user id, which does not make sense given exit status are limited to
values between 0 and 255.
