Ensure that nsswitch.conf for nss/tst-reload[12] are really synced.

  Both tests, nss/tst-reload1 and nss/tst-reload2 are test-container
tests and both provide a root directory for the container.

Unfortunately on a fresh git clone, all the nsswitch files have
the same size of 40bytes and timestamp:
nss/tst-reload1.root/etc/nsswitch.conf2
nss/tst-reload2.root/etc/nsswitch.conf
nss/tst-reload2.root/subdir/etc/nsswitch.conf
nss/tst-reload1.root/etc/nsswitch.conf

After running tst-reload1, the <objpfx>/testroot.root/etc/nsswitch.conf
file has the content of nss/tst-reload1.root/etc/nsswitch.conf2.

Rerunning with "make t=nss/tst-reload1 test" leads to fails
as nsswitch.conf is not synced by test-container.c.

Therefore this patch just adds different comments to those files
to ensure that test-container.c is always syncing them.

I'm getting the same output as mentioned in the bugzilla:
$ cd <builddir>
$ rm -f testroot.root/etc/nsswitch.conf
$ make t=nss/tst-reload1 test
PASS: nss/tst-reload1
$ cat testroot.root/etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd:	test2
group:	test2
hosts:	test2

$ make t=nss/tst-reload2 test
tst-reload2.c:112: numeric comparison failure
   left: 5 (0x5); from: pw->pw_uid
  right: 1234 (0x4d2); from: 1234
error: tst-reload2.c:130: not true: pw->pw_uid != 2468
tst-reload2.c:136: numeric comparison failure
   left: 5 (0x5); from: pw->pw_uid
  right: 1234 (0x4d2); from: 1234
error: tst-reload2.c:146: not true: he != NULL
error: 4 test failures

$ cat testroot.root/etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd:	test2
group:	test2
hosts:	test2

According to tst-reload2.c and current nsswitch.conf, it is using
pwd_table2, which is PWD_N (5, "test1"). According to the
nss/tst-reload2.root/etc/nsswitch.conf, it should use PWD_N (1234,
"test1") of pwd_table1.

Thus, yes, I assume this is the same issue.

Bye,
Stefan
