This patch cleans up the ident stuff in inetd. The code which has
been patched so many times it was a bit of a mess. There are style,
code and man page cleanups. The following are the functional changes:
The RFC only permits the returning of 4 possible error
codes, make sure we only return these (PR 27636).
Use MAXLOGNAME to determine the longest usernames.
Add a -i flag, which returns the uid instead of the username
(this is from a PR 25787, which also contained alot of the
cleanups in this patch).
