Account Backup and Restoration

When restoring backups from read-only media a working directory is created in a suitable, writable location. The location is determined by the same function used during account creation, based upon the HOMEDIR and HOMEMATCH values in /etc/wwwacct.conf. The backup is extracted into the working directory, then the restoration occurs. Afterwards, the working directory is cleared.

The cpmove file location is now output at the end of the packaging process. Prior versions dispalyed it earlier in the process, risking losing the location due to terminal scroll buffer constraints.
