Quick change to get it inline with what's in the overlay.

Really not necessary to read all the groups that the haldaemon user is part of
and then diff them and set the ones that are missing. Just everytime usermod -G
"${HALDAEMON_GROUPS}" haldaemon and usermod does the right thing. We don't need
users adding the haldaemon to groups. If they have to do that, then it's a bug
in the ebuild and it needs to be fixed.

This simplifies the ebuild.

except that your version doesn't preserve if the user adds haldaemon to another group (say a hal developer who is messing around?).  We need to preserve user modifications.

Here's a happy day. One that needed to come and finally has. :)
