netdb.h

[Simon Josefsson]

I noticed that I have some HAVE_NETDB_H checks to cover mingw32 in
gsasl.  The declarations in getaddrinfo.h should really be defined in
netdb.h, as far as I can tell, too.

This is a first patch that merely create a small dummy netdb.h
replacement file.  Pushed, but I do appreciate review and testing of
it.  In particular, if anyone has access to a BeOS system, testing
whether it does the right thing there would be useful.

Thanks,
/Simon

Subject: [PATCH] Add netdb.h replacement module.
 Currently empty and unused, but that will change soon.
