system: Allow root to use 'groupadd' & co. without authenticating.

This fixes a bug whereby, if #:allow-root-passwords was #f, 'groupadd'
would ask for a password.  This is particularly problematic during
activation.

* gnu/system/linux.scm (rootok-pam-service): New procedure.
  (base-pam-services): Use it for all the user* and group* commands.
