shield Recommended update for shadow

SUSE-SLE-SERVER-12-SP2-2017-907

This update for shadow fixes the following issues: - Dynamically added users via pam_group are not listed in groups databases but are still valid. (bsc#1031643) - useradd(8) and groupadd(8) performance issue when using SSSD. Previously the entire possible UID/GID was iterated to find an available UID/GID. This could take long time over a network device. Instead, find available UID/GID locally, and then check only those values over network. (bsc#1003978)
