Add deferred cancellation regression test for getpwuid_r.
The fix in commit 312be3f9f5eab1643d7dcc7728c76d413d4f2640 resolved several cancellation issues in several APIs. This regression test is designed to double check that at least getpwuid_r remainds correctly implemented and does not provide additional unintended cancellation points that may leave locks in an inconsistent state.
