Revision 277 (latest revision is 296)

- Update to final 1.5.3 release:
  - configure: added --enable-logind option to use logind instead of utmp
    in pam_issue and pam_timestamp.
  - pam_modutil_getlogin: changed to use getlogin() from libc instead of
    parsing utmp.
  - Added libeconf support to pam_env and pam_shells.
  - Added vendor directory support to pam_access, pam_env, pam_group,
    pam_faillock, pam_limits, pam_namespace, pam_pwhistory, pam_sepermit,
    pam_shells, and pam_time.
  - pam_limits: changed to not fail on missing config files.
  - pam_pwhistory: added conf= option to specify config file location.
  - pam_pwhistory: added file= option to specify password history file
    location.
  - pam_shells: added shells.d support when libeconf and vendordir are enabled.
  - Deprecated pam_lastlog: this module is no longer built by default because
    it uses utmp, wtmp, btmp and lastlog, but none of them are Y2038 safe,
    even on 64bit architectures.
    pam_lastlog will be removed in one of the next releases, consider using
    pam_lastlog2 (from https://github.com/thkukuk/lastlog2) and/or
    pam_wtmpdb (from https://github.com/thkukuk/wtmpdb) instead.
  - Deprecated _pam_overwrite(), _pam_overwrite_n(), and _pam_drop_reply()
    macros provided by _pam_macros.h; the memory override performed by these
    macros can be optimized out by the compiler and therefore can no longer
    be relied upon.
