Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek fdbbee37d5 man: drop unused <authorgroup> tags from man sources
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.

Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>nss-mymachines</command> is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of
the GNU C Library (<command>glibc</command>), providing hostname resolution for the names of containers running
locally that are registered with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The
container names are resolved to the IP addresses of the specific container, ordered by their scope. This
functionality only applies to containers using network namespacing.</para>
<para>The module also resolves user and group IDs used by containers to user and group names indicating the
container name, and back. This functionality only applies to containers using user namespacing.</para>
<para>To activate the NSS module, add <literal>mymachines</literal> to the lines starting with
<literal>hosts:</literal>, <literal>passwd:</literal> and <literal>group:</literal> in
<filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>.</para>
<para>It is recommended to place <literal>mymachines</literal> after the <literal>files</literal> or
<literal>compat</literal> entry of the <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> lines to make sure that its mappings
are preferred over other resolvers such as DNS, but so that <filename>/etc/hosts</filename>,
<filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and <filename>/etc/group</filename> based mappings take precedence.</para>
