Replacement for old libnss-mysql as naming service library in Linux.
You can store user information in MariaDB/MySQL database. E.g. `ls` then automatically shows user name from the database, `getent` shows users and groups.
## Features
- cmake build system
- libconfig for configuration
- uses direct queries and real_escape_string
- uses threads.c from C11
- requirements: Glibc 2.28, GCC8, equivalent of Debian 10 (Buster) and newer, MySQL5.5+/MariaDB10.0+, mariadb-connector-c/mysql-client
might work or compile on older systems, but it's untested
