Implement getpeereid(3), a front-end to the LOCAL_PEERCRED socket option for the Unix domain. It's weaker than the socket option (this only returns the uid and gid, while the socket opt. can return the entire group list), and is implemented mostly for compatibility with OpenBSD.

Introduce a version field to `struct xucred' in place of one of the spares (the size of the field was changed from u_short to u_int to reflect what it really ends up being). Accordingly, change users of xucred to set and check this field as appropriate. In the kernel, this is being done inside the new cru2x() routine which takes a `struct ucred' and fills out a `struct xucred' according to the former. This also has the pleasant sideaffect of removing some duplicate code. Reviewed by: rwatson
