Replace groups.sh with groups.c.
* src/groups.c (main): New file, replacing groups.sh. * src/group-list.c, src/group-list.h: New files, factored out of id.c, implementing the functionality that "id" and "groups" have in common. * src/id.c (print_full_info): Avoid a segfault when trying to print an error message if getgroups fails. (print_group_list): Move to group-list.c. (print_group): Likewise. * man/Makefile.am: When building groups.1, obtain the help text from src/groups.c, not src/groups.sh. (noinst_HEADERS): Add group-list.h. (group): Remove rule. (dist_man_MANS): Remove groups.1. * doc/coreutils.texi (groups: Print group names a user is in): Explain why "groups" and "groups $(id -un)" give different results in existing login sessions after you change the group database. (id: Print user identity): Likewise for "id". * po/POTFILES.in: Add src/group-list.c and src/groups.c. * NEWS: mention this. * AUTHORS: Update.

ls no longer segfaults on files in /proc when linked with an older version
of libselinux. E.g., ls -l /proc/sys would dereference a NULL pointer.
