Lines in /etc/group longer than 64 characters breaks the current
implementation of group parser. This is caused by bufio.Scanner
buffer limit.
Fix by re-using the fix for a similar problem in golang os/user,
namely https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/283601
(fixing a similar bug in golang os/user, golang/go#43636).
Add some tests.
