Fixing cygdrop.

   The data area passed to a system call is too small.

A quick look into the sources shows that the maximum buffer size for
the group list returned by GetTokenInformation is wrongly computed:

   max_groups = 100;
   char groups_buf[sizeof(DWORD) + max_groups * sizeof(SID_AND_ATTRIBUTES)];

The SID_AND_ATTRIBUTES structure only contains a pointer to the SID, so
what's missing is actual space for the SIDs.

Oops.

But it would be better to leave that to the OS anyway:

Thanks for the patch. Works as expected.
