Description

A new "lfs projectadd" would be useful to be able to quickly add project entries to the /etc/projid file, which would work like "useradd" and "groupadd"

It should check for the existing projname and projid in the file before allowing the new entry to be added.

It should use the "c|comment" option the same as "useradd", and "-projid" to match other "lfs" commands.

It would be good to also have an alias "projadd" to keep it closer to the other commands in length.
