rG664b9fcb1c05: cred: Separate constant for the number of inlined groups

Summary

CRED_SMALLGROUPS_NB now holds the number of inlined groups in field
'cr_smallgroups'. XU_NGROUPS stays the number of groups allowed in
'struct xucred'. The first is an implementation detail, while the
second is part of a public interface. All mentions of XU_NGROUPS in the
tree have been reviewed and only those concerning the implementation
detail have been changed to use CRED_SMALLGROUPS_NB (they were all in
'kern_prot.c').

No functional change (intended).

Seems good. This is just a correctness change, yes? As in, CRED_SMALLGROUPS_NB is not touched by any later change in the series?

Yes, this is effectively a correctness fix, with also the aim of enabling a possible increase of CRED_SMALLGROUPS_NB in the future (whereas XU_NGROUPS can't be changed because of backwards compatibility), although for now I don't feel a particular need to do it.
