[ Reason ]
There's a dependency missing for virtiofsd package, -
which is bug #1109051.

The problem here is that virtiofsd does not run in its most
common and most secure configuration.  It is more, -- there's
no (visible) error messages anywhere, and the user faces a
void with cryptic error messages.  Even experienced debian
users are unable to figure out what's happening.

This update adds a new dependency for virtiofsd on uidmap package,
which provides the required functionality.

Arguable it can be added to Recommends instead, but I think
hard dependency is better in this case.

Speaking of the new dependency, - it is one of a few very basic
system packages which comes from shadow-utils source.  Yes, it
contains suid-root helpers, but overall it's a small self-contained
package for which there should be no issues to install.

[ Tests ]
It's basically not applicable.  Yes, with the installation of
uidmap package, the bug in question is fixed.

[ Risks ]
There's no change in the package itself besides adding a single
new entry to the Depends: line.  The only possible risk comes from
the uidmap package itself, - some might find it not good when there's
a new suid-root binary on their system.  We have `su' already, though.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable


Thanks,
