Subject: [ISSUE] vipw/vigr displays y/n question only *after* receiving answer

New issue by loreb on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/33699
Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System
* xuname:
Void 5.13.19_1 x86_64-musl GenuineIntel uptodate rFF
* package:
util-linux-2.37.2_1
### Expected behavior
The program prints "Would you like to edit (filename) now [y/n]? ", I see the question and reply
### Actual behavior
The program shows nothing, I type "y" and *then* it prints the question - there should be a `fflush(stdout)` between printf and fgets in login-utils/vipw.c:354, or to be even safer set stdout to unbuffered right on program startup.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
as root, run vipw or vigr on a musl system using /etc/shadow, modify anything and see
