Implement new mode for NIS passwd.adjunct.byname table.
The passwd.adjunct.byname table will not be used to fill in password fields in the passwd.byname replies. Instead it is used to synthesize the shadow.byname table, should it be missing. This is a useful mode in some installations involving Solaris.
