Move sys_reset_uid_gid to library
This fixes a problem where ‘gcc -fanalyzer -flto’ (GCC 10) complained that sys_reset_uid_gid was defined but not used in some modules. This function belonged in a .c file anyway. * lib/rtapelib.c (sys_reset_uid_gid): * paxlib/rtape.c (sys_reset_uid_gid): Move here from system.h. The code is now duplicated, but so is most of the rest of this file anyway. * lib/system.h (sys_reset_uid_gid): Remove.
