various: try to use DEFAULT_USER_SHELL for root too
/bin/sh as a shell is punishing. There is no good reason to make the occasional root login unpleasant. Since /bin/sh is usually /bin/bash in compat mode, i.e. if one is available, the other will be too, /bin/bash is almost as good as a default. But to avoid a regression in the situation where /bin/bash (or DEFAULT_USER_SHELL) is not installed, we check with access() and fall back to /bin/sh. This should make this change in behaviour less risky. (FWIW, e.g. Fedora/RHEL use /bin/bash as default for root.) This is a follow-up of sorts for 53350c7bbade8c5f357aa3d1029ef9b2208ea675, which added the default-user-shell option, but most likely with the idea of using /bin/bash less ;) Fixes #24369.
