** Description changed:

  we should use a system user for running the sssd services.
  
  this is done by configuring it --with-sssd-user=sssd
  
  design ideas for a sssd service as user:

  [email protected]/thread/WPKEYGQ6WU6VE56GFGLNXCX4BTJXUOPQ/
  
  the most trouble likely arises for migrating previous installations (file 
ownerships)
  and creating directories owned by the local sssd user/group on initial 
installation (since we likely won't allocate a global user id, and so 
build-time user ids won't be the same as install-time user ids)
+ 
+ we have to figure out how we sync the compiletime usage of SSSD_USER in
+ Makefile.am done at runtime (to prevent id mismatches).
