    pw_scan: remove checks for (u|g)ids > USHRT_MAX.
    
    Remove the check and simplify the logic for checking
    UID/GID validity in `pw_scan()` by calling `strtonum`
    instead of `strtoul`.
    
    I ran into this because I use a non-default UID/GID
    numbering scheme where both are typically greater
    than 2^16 for normal users.  The width of UIDs has
    been 32 bits since before 4.4BSD in 1994, almost 27
    years ago; if larger UIDs were going to show up as
    a problem it would have already happened.
