Remove login(3), logout(3) and logwtmp(3) from libutil.
These functions only apply to utmp(5). They cannot be kept intact when moving towards utmpx. The login(3) function would break, because its argument is an utmp structure. The logout(3) and logwtmp(3) functions cannot be used, since they provide a functionality which partially overlaps. Increment SHLIB_MAJOR to 9 to indicate the removal.
