* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Add the initial user to the adm, dip, lpadmin, and sambashare groups
    too, and to the admin group if no root password is set. Do not add
    them to the audio, video, floppy, dip, netdev, powerdev, scanner, or
    bluetooth groups.
  - Allow the admin group to gain root privileges using sudo.
  - Default passwd/root-login to false.
  - Create the spu group on powerpc/ps3 and powerpc/cell.
  - Make is_system_user always return false if OVERRIDE_SYSTEM_USER is
    set.
  - Add preseedable passwd/auto-login question; if set to true, configure
    gdm and kdm for automatic login. Add passwd/auto-login-backup question
    which backs up the previous contents of the files as well.
  - Ask whether the user wants to encrypt their home directory.
  - Zero out swap devices at the end of install when encryption is
    enabled.
  - If user-setup/allow-password-empty is preseeded to true, allow empty
    passwords.
  - Disable installation of pre-pkgsel.d/10kdesudo; it does nothing for
    Ubuntu, and causes a confusing message that worries some people.
  - Add weak password detection (purely length-based for now, matching
    partman-crypto).
  - Consider a password of '!' in shadow for root to be unset.
