If a uid and/or gid is specified for a command, it will be set just
after the user-supplied post-fork "hook" function is called.
The intent is that this can replace user hook functions that set
uid/gid. This moves the setting of uid/gid and dropping of
capabilities closer to each other, which is important since the two
should really be done at the same time (libcapng provides a single
function that does both, which we will be unable to use, but want to
mimic as closely as possible).

Change from V1:
* only bypass uid/gid setting if they are -1
* cast -1 to ([gu]id_t) when comparing to a [gu]id_t
* cast uid and gid to (int) for printing
