The uutils/shadow-rs repo was renamed to uutils/shadow. Rename the page (content/shadow.md, title=shadow), update the homepage row and nav, and fix the repo/CONTRIBUTING/LICENSE links. Add a /shadow-rs alias so the old URL still redirects.

Memory-safe Rust reimplementation of Linux shadow-utils: useradd, userdel, usermod, passwd, pwck, chpasswd, chage, groupadd, groupdel, groupmod, grpck, chfn, chsh, and newgrp.
This project aims to be a drop-in replacement for the original commands, with the same flags, exit codes, and output format as GNU shadow-utils.
Goals
This project aims to be a drop-in replacement for the GNU shadow-utils, with a focus on:
- Drop-in compatibility - same flags, same exit codes, same output format as GNU shadow-utils.
- Memory safety - eliminating buffer overflows and use-after-free vulnerabilities through Rust's type system.
- Security hardening - Landlock sandboxing and privilege dropping.
- Comprehensive testing - unit tests, property-based tests, integration tests, and fuzz targets.
