Dmitry V. Levin 2cae0f5c67 pam_canonicalize_user: new module to canonicalize user name
This module uses the name of the user obtained via pam_get_user(3)
as a key to query the password database, and replaces PAM_USER
with the pw_name value that has been returned.

The main usage scenario is systems where a user name is used in several
distinct authentication systems, some of them being case sensitive while
others are not.
