Fix swaylock w/shadow on glibc, improve security

Today I learned that GNU flaunts the POSIX standard in yet another
creative way. Additionally, this adds some security improvements,
namely:

- Zeroing out password buffers in the privileged child process
- setuid/setgid after reading /etc/shadow

Add support for building swaylock without PAM

This involves setuid'ing swaylock, which then forks and drops perms on
the parent process. The child process remains root and listens on a pipe
for requests to validate passwords against /etc/shadow.
