login
=====
login provides some required infrastructure for logins and for
changing effective user or group IDs, including:
* login, the program that invokes a user shell on a virtual terminal;
* nologin, a dummy shell for disabled user accounts;
* su, a basic tool for executing commands as root or another user.
Reimplement this command in Rust:
* /bin/login
* /usr/bin/faillog
* /usr/bin/lastlog
* /usr/bin/newgrp
* /usr/sbin/nologin
* /usr/bin/sg
