I'm about to switch the order of listener creation and dropping root
privileges.  rpc.statd will drop privileges first, then create its
listeners.  The reason for the new ordering is explained in a
subsequent patch.

However, for non-TI-RPC builds, rpc_init() needs to use a privileged
port to do pmap registrations.  For both TI-RPC and non-TI-RPC builds,
CAP_NET_BIND is required in case the admin requests a privileged
listener port on the statd command line.

So that these requirements are met, nsm_drop_privileges() will now
retain CAP_NET_BIND while dropping root.
