[getdns-api] changes to signatures of data helper functions

[Wiley, Glen]

I'd like to change the signatures for the non-trivial data type helper functions to include the context so that we will have access to the user defined allocators.  For example

getdns_return_t getdns_list_copy(struct getdns_list *srclist, struct getdns_list **dstlist);

becomes:

getdns_return_t getdns_list_copy(getdns_context_t context, struct getdns_list *srclist, struct getdns_list **dstlist);

And

getdns_return_t getdns_dict_get_names(struct getdns_dict *dict, struct getdns_list **answer);

Becomes

getdns_return_t getdns_dict_get_names(getdns_context_t context, struct getdns_dict *dict, struct getdns_list **answer);

Each helper function that may involve significant use of a user defined allocator would end up with the context as arg 0.


What do folks think?
