Cleanups of pam_pwhistory code. Make opasswd entry parsing more robust.
* modules/pam_pwhistory/opasswd.c (check_old_password): Do not
needlessly call strdupa().
(save_old_password): Avoid memleaks in error paths. Avoid memleak of
buf. Make the opasswd entry parsing more robust.
* modules/pam_pwhistory/pam_pwhistory.8.xml: Document the
special meaning of remember=0.
