useradd.bbclass: retry useradd/groupadd commands to avoid lock race issues
A race condition can occur when adding users and groups to the passwd and group files, causing errors like the following: ERROR: Function 'useradd_sysroot' failed Tried to access "/etc/group" but this was locked. This fix will cause the useradd code to retry the useradd and groupadd commands up to 10 times (with a 1s sleep in between attempts) before failing. This fixes [YOCTO #1794] (From OE-Core rev: 68c589f1b5ee36f0aff151b728447ffdae14622c) Signed-off-by: Scott Garman <scott.a.garman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
