This patch adds the last userspace admin tool - sss_groupmod. It allows
nesting of groups (i.e. adding a group as a member of another group) and
modifying its GID.

GID (and related UID) modification by the tools is something I wanted to
bring up for discussion on the list. The sysdb API provides ways to do
that, the InfoPipe methods use a name that makes it cleat that it's
discouraged. So what about the userspace tools? Stephen suggested on IRC
that we could leave the functionality there, but not expose the option
by providing a custom usage() instead of the popt-autogenerated. I like
his idea..opinions?
