There is quite some code duplication between the two functions. Can we
have a single one that would also take a search base and either
objectlass or filter as arguments? The objectclass or filter would then
be and-end with SYSDB_SID_STR=%s. User and group functions could then be
just thin wrappers.

Also I would prefer a unit test for any new sysdb API.
