conf: Add --runas option, changing to given UID and GID if started as root
On some systems, user and group "nobody" might not be available. The new --runas option allows to override the default "nobody" choice if started as root. Now that we allow this, drop the initgroups() call that was used to add any additional groups for the given user, as that might now grant unnecessarily broad permissions. For instance, several distributions have a "kvm" group to allow regular user access to /dev/kvm, and we don't need that in passt or pasta. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
