    cred: crsetgroups(): Throw away old groups before crextend()
    
    Now that crextend() asserts that groups are not set (rightfully so,
    since it may change the backing storage without copying the content of
    the old one), have crsetgroups() throw away the old groups before
    calling it, as it installs an entirely new set anyway.
    
    This allows to reuse unshared credentials by resetting their groups set,
    as NFS exports actually do.
    
    Reported by:    cy
    Tested by:      cy
    Fixes:          ea26c0e79752 ("cred: crextend(): Harden, simplify")
    Pointy hat to:  olce
    
    While here, as I forgot these credits in commit 77d652b4b472 ("nfs:
    Fallback to GID_NOGROUP on no groups"):
    Tested by:    cy, David Wolfskill (panics caused by mountd(8))
    Tested by:    kib (MINIMAL/custom kernel compile breakup)
