REVISION SUMMARY
The KIO KPAC DHCP helper uses `setgroups(2)`. But this is apparently not specified in POSIX due to being a "privileged call", so it is only available as an extension, typically needing `_BSD_SOURCE` to be explicitly defined from what I can gather.
glibc will gladly provide `setgroups()` as a GNU extension without requiring `_BSD_SOURCE`, but musl libc requires one of `_{BSD_GNU}_SOURCE` and doesn't pre-define either.
Defining `_BSD_SOURCE` is easy enough but it seems that glibc now complains about that, calling it deprecated, so I also threw in a `_DEFAULT_SOURCE` define, which appears to be the new hotness. But maybe it would be easier to find a way to avoid `setgroups()`?
TEST PLAN
KIO now builds under musl libc
KIO still builds under glibc
