Modified files:
        usr.bin/getent : getent.c 

Log message:
Since each database that has the rpath promise only needs to access one
specific file (in read mode) we can add a 4th attribute to the struct getentdb
to define each of those files, except for group/hosts/passwd dbs which will be
assigned NULL to that attribute because all the necessary files they need to
open are already whitelisted through pledge(2) via either dns or getpw
promises.

With that set we can then check if the 4th attribute (called unveil) is not
NULL and in that case unveil(2) that specific file per each database.

After a discussion with millert@ regarding YP then deraadt@ chimed in referring
that when he wrote this code even though we can have YP mappings with several
of these dbs "it doesn't mean that things use it, or should, or will" so adding
unveil(2) here should not impact any YP environments.

OK millert@ deraadt@
