common: check user and group existence via id Newer machines support the creation of users that don't appear in /etc/passwd but are only available via nss or userdbd. Use getent passwd to check for a users existence. With this change I can run xfstests on systems where the users are created via systemd-userdbd drop-ins. See the documentation in [1] and [2].
