dockerTools.fakeNss: init

This provides a /etc/passwd and /etc/group that contain root and nobody.

Useful when packaging binaries that insist on using nss to look up
username/groups (like nginx).

The current nginx example used the `runAsRoot` parameter to setup
/etc/group and /etc/passwd (which also doesn't exist in
buildLayeredImage), so we can now just use fakeNss there and use
buildLayeredImage.
