was asked by a colleague this morning why an admittedly old (morty)
build had the "nologin" executable installed in both /sbin and
/usr/sbin, and they were clearly different (sizes were 6K and 10K).
took a quick look, and noticed that nologin was apparently being
installed by both the shadow and util-linux packages.

  wondered what else might be referring to nologin so, in the current
master of OE, i notice in meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd_230.bb
numerous references to nologin of the form:

USERADD_PARAM_${PN} += "${@bb.utils.contains('PACKAGECONFIG',
'coredump', '--system -d / -M --shell /bin/nologin systemd-coredump;',
'', d)}"

  which now presents a *third* possibility for the location of
nologin: /bin/nologin.

  so i'm going to dig into history to see in what way "nologin" has
moved around, but if there's a summary somewhere, that would be just
ducky.
