More configurability for secondary group lookup
Together with a previous patch which introduced the initgroups entry in nsswitch.conf this patch allows more customization of the lookups for initgroups/getgrouplist. Nothing changes if the groups entry in nsswitch.conf is used. If the initgroups entry is used instead the code now doesn't automatically continue looking for more entries aftedr a successful lookup. Instead the normal rules are followed which do specify that by default no more service is consulted. This can be overwritten with [SUCCESS=continue] appropriately placed in the line.
