shadow: add patch to fix crypt: Invalid Argument

This patch came from Slackware and address a change in crypt()'s handling
of an invalid seed, which in the past returned an encrypted string and now
returns a NULL.

[YOCTO #4097] related to tinylogin segfault

This patch is from Slackware, I tried to find the actual
