Add setuid from https://github.molgen.mpg.de/mariux64/setuid.

Currently /usr/sbin/setuid is provided from https://github.molgen.mpg.de/mariux64/mxtools. As @pmenzel remarked in mariux64/mxtools#135 this is not optimal, because currently files from mxtools are installed directly with "make install" from checked out working directories. This is not a problem for files like scripts and configuration files which are installed into the system as copies from their source files which are tracked by git. Files generated by compilation vary tough and with the current mechanism we don't have a history or archive of the installed compilation outputs.

As setuid is the only compiled tool in mxtools, I've created a separate repository for it so that can be installed with bee.

When merged, setuid can be removed from mxtools.

"Not ready for merge", because there is an alternative approach to install mxtools with bee. This second approach has mariux64/mxtools#136 as a prerequisite.
