Beniamino Galvani 022b992846 daemon-helper: add read-file-as-user
Add a new command to read the content of a file after switching to the
given user. This command can be used to enforce Unix filesystem
permissions when accessing a file on behalf of a user.

/* nm_utils_get_next_realloc_size() is used to grow buffers exponentially, when
* the final size is unknown. As such, it has borders for which it allocates
* certain buffer sizes.
*
* The use of these defines is to get favorable allocation sequences.
* For example, NM_STR_BUF_INIT() asks for an initial allocation size. Note that
* it reserves the exactly requested amount, under the assumption that the
* user may know how many bytes will be required. However, often the caller
* doesn't know in advance, and NMStrBuf grows exponentially by calling
* nm_utils_get_next_realloc_size().
* Imagine you call NM_STR_BUF_INIT() with an initial buffer size 100, and you
* add one character at a time. Then the first reallocation will increase the
* buffer size only from 100 to 104.
* If you however start with an initial buffer size of 104, then the next reallocation
* via nm_utils_get_next_realloc_size() gives you 232, and so on. By using
* these sizes, it results in one less allocation, if you anyway don't know the
* exact size in advance. */
