* configure.ac: check whether close_range() is available in the system.
* libpam/pam_modutil_sanitize.c: use close_range() to close all file
descriptors. If the interface isn't available use the previous
approach.

When pam_modutil_sanitize_helper_fds() is invoked with
PAM_MODUTIL_PIPE_FD to provide a dummy pipe descriptor for stdout
or stderr, it closes the read end of the newly created dummy pipe.
The negative side effect of this approach is that any write to such
descriptor triggers a SIGPIPE. Avoid this by closing the write end of
the dummy pipe and using its read end as a dummy pipe descriptor for
output. Any read from such descriptor returns 0, and any write just
fails with EBADF, which should work better with unprepared writers.
* libpam/pam_modutil_sanitize.c (redirect_out_pipe): Remove.
(redirect_out): Call redirect_in_pipe instead of redirect_out_pipe.

This change introduces pam_modutil_sanitize_helper_fds - a new function
that redirects standard descriptors and closes all other descriptors.
pam_modutil_sanitize_helper_fds supports three types of input and output
redirection:
- PAM_MODUTIL_IGNORE_FD: do not redirect at all.
- PAM_MODUTIL_PIPE_FD: redirect to a pipe. For stdin, it is implemented
by creating a pipe, closing its write end, and redirecting stdin to
its read end. Likewise, for stdout/stderr it is implemented by
creating a pipe, closing its read end, and redirecting to its write
end. Unlike stdin redirection, stdout/stderr redirection to a pipe
has a side effect that a process writing to such descriptor should be
prepared to handle SIGPIPE appropriately.
- PAM_MODUTIL_NULL_FD: redirect to /dev/null. For stdin, it is
implemented via PAM_MODUTIL_PIPE_FD because there is no functional
difference. For stdout/stderr, it is classic redirection to
/dev/null.
PAM_MODUTIL_PIPE_FD is usually more suitable due to linux kernel
security restrictions, but when the helper process might be writing to
the corresponding descriptor and termination of the helper process by
SIGPIPE is not desirable, one should choose PAM_MODUTIL_NULL_FD.
