virtualgl[1] runs chown root:vglusers on /dev/nvidia* and on devices
usually owned by the "render" group[2]. This makes them unavailable in
the sandbox if noroot (which causes groups to be dropped) is used.

Since firejail classifies all of the aforementioned devices as being
DEV_3D on fs_dev.c (which means that they are controlled by no3d),
treat the "vglusers" group the same as the "render" group (by always
keeping "vglusers" unless no3d is used).

See the discussion on #2042 (from this comment[3] onwards).

virtualgl[1] runs `chown root:vglusers` on `/dev/nvidia*` and on devices
usually owned by the "render" group[2].  This makes them unavailable in
the sandbox if `noroot` (which causes groups to be dropped) is used.

Since firejail classifies all of the aforementioned devices as being
`DEV_3D` on fs_dev.c (which means that they are controlled by `no3d`),
treat the "vglusers" group the same as the "render" group (by always
keeping "vglusers" unless `no3d` is used).

This group is apparently used on Gentoo[1].

Currently only the "audio" supplementary group is kept.

Fixes netblue30#5992.
