c89e00a97e Fix swaylock w/shadow on glibc, improve security
Today I learned that GNU flaunts the POSIX standard in yet another
creative way. Additionally, this adds some security improvements,
namely:

- Zeroing out password buffers in the privileged child process
- setuid/setgid after reading /etc/shadow

c977349120 Add support for building swaylock without PAM
This involves setuid'ing swaylock, which then forks and drops perms on
the parent process. The child process remains root and listens on a pipe
for requests to validate passwords against /etc/shadow.
