Subject: [PATCH] utils: ignore systemd and sd-pam process in
 get_active_uid_linux()

We iterate processes in /proc to get the list of active users (users
that has any process running). However, recent change in systemd makes
systemd and sd-pam process ligner for few more seconds when the user has
logged out which breaks the no-session functionality in pam responder.

If user is logged in, another process then systemd and sd-pam must be
running. Therefore we can just ignore these from the list.

```
admin     351997  0.4  0.0  22648 14636 ?        Ss   13:25   0:00 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user
admin     351999  0.0  0.0 201464  7756 ?        S    13:25   0:00 (sd-pam)
```

Resolves: https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/issues/5900

:fixes: Quick log out and log in did not correctly refresh
  user's initgroups in `no_session` PAM schema due to lingering
  systemd processes.
