On NetBSD programs with write access to /dev/clockctl can adjust or set
the system clock without the root privileges. Add a function to drop the
privileges and check if the process has write access to the device to
get a more descriptive error message when the chrony uid/gid doesn't
match the owner of the device.
This is a verbatim copy of the files at that stage of the repository that was
built from the CVS import. It allows future development to see a bit of recent
history, but without carrying around the baggage going back to 1997. If that
is really required, git grafts can be used.
