Subject: [PATCH] Use a different group name for GID 0 depending on the
 minion's O/S

Some Unix variants name GID 0 "wheel".  Unfortunately, one cannot
specify this group by ID, because Python conflates integer 0 with
boolean False, nor can one specify this group using the string '0',
because of assumptions in the Salt or Python codebases regarding group
names.
