- Update to final 1.5.3 release:

in pam_issue and pam_timestamp.
- pam_modutil_getlogin: changed to use getlogin() from libc instead of

pam_faillock, pam_limits, pam_namespace, pam_pwhistory, pam_sepermit,
pam_shells, and pam_time.

- pam_pwhistory: added file= option to specify password history file
location.
- pam_shells: added shells.d support when libeconf and vendordir are enabled.
- Deprecated pam_lastlog: this module is no longer built by default because
it uses utmp, wtmp, btmp and lastlog, but none of them are Y2038 safe,
even on 64bit architectures.
pam_lastlog will be removed in one of the next releases, consider using
pam_lastlog2 (from https://github.com/thkukuk/lastlog2) and/or
pam_wtmpdb (from https://github.com/thkukuk/wtmpdb) instead.
- Deprecated _pam_overwrite(), _pam_overwrite_n(), and _pam_drop_reply()
macros provided by _pam_macros.h; the memory override performed by these
macros can be optimized out by the compiler and therefore can no longer
be relied upon.
