Add YAML metadata for `pwd.h` listing all POSIX-mandated functions
(`endpwent`, `getpwent`, `getpwnam`, `getpwnam_r`, `getpwuid`,
`getpwuid_r`, `setpwent`). This header defines no macros per POSIX.

Add `pwd` to `index.rst` and `CMakeLists.txt` `docgen_list`.

Verified with `python3 docgen.py pwd.h` — generates valid RST with correct POSIX links.

Partial fix for #122006
