Add 3 new functions to set the local binding for the out-going
socket connection, and add ares_set_servers_csv() to set a
list of servers at once as a comma-separated string.

ares_addr6ttl in order to prevent name space pollution, along with
necessary changes to code base and man pages.This change does not break
ABI, there is no need to recompile existing applications. But existing
applications using these structs with the old name will need source code
adjustments when recompiled using c-ares 1.6.1.
to return a linked lists of results. These were also modified to internally
use the ares_data memory struct and as such its result must be free'ed with
ares_free_data().
--enable-symbol-hiding and --disable-symbol-hiding as well as related
macro names and some internal variables used for them.
Related configuration file preprocessor symbols named to
CARES_SYMBOL_HIDING and CARES_SYMBOL_SCOPE_EXTERN.
ares_parse_txt_reply() current version:
- Fixed a couple of potential double free's.
- Fixed memory leaks upon out of memory condition.
- Fixed pointer arithmetic.
- Setting ntxtreply to zero upon entry for all failure cases.
- Changed data type to size_t for variables substr_len, str_len and
the length member of ares_txt_reply struct.
- Avoided a couple of memcpy() calls.
- Changed i data type to unsigned int to prevent compiler warnings.
- Adjusted a comment.
- Use ARES_SUCCESS literal for successfull completion.
- Added CVS Id tag.
based on the 'visibility' attribute for GNUC and __global for Sun
compilers, taking also in account __declspec function decoration
for Win32 and Symbian DLL's.
Introducing configure options --enable-hidden-symbols and
--disable-hidden-symbols following libcurl's naming.
in man resolv.conf:
causes round robin selection of nameservers from among those listed. This
has the effect of spreading the query load among all listed servers, rather
than having all clients try the first listed server first every time.
You can enable it with ARES_OPT_ROTATE
specific sockets and thus avoiding select() and associated functions/macros.
This function will be used by upcoming libcurl releases for this very
reason. It also made me export the ares_socket_t type in the public ares.h
header file, since ares_process_fd() uses that type for two of the arguments.
