bpo-26067: Do not fail test_shutil / chown when gid/uid cannot be resolved (#19032)
* bpo-26067: Do not fail test_shutil.chown when gid/uid cannot be resolved
There is no guarantee that the users primary uid or gid can be resolved
in the unix group/account databases. Skip the last part of the chown
test if we cannot resolve the gid or uid to a name.
