2022-03-22Simplify allocations and fix merge and continue actions [BZ #28931]Siddhesh Poyarekar
Allocations for address tuples is currently a bit confusing because of the pointer chasing through PAT, making it hard to observe the sequence in which allocations have been made. Narrow scope of the pointer chasing through PAT so that it is only used where necessary. This also tightens actions behaviour with the hosts database in getaddrinfo to comply with the manual text. The "continue" action discards previous results and the "merge" action results in an immedate lookup failure. Consequently, chaining of allocations across modules is no longer necessary, thus opening up cleanup opportunities. A test has been added that checks some combinations to ensure that they work correctly.
