make getnetby*() thread-safe.

rename the NIS related fields to have yp_ prefix.

Suggested by: delphij

Do not check whether a pointer is NULL, since free(3) already takes care of
this case.

Fix build for !YP case.

BTW. Shall we change these fields to have yp_ prefix? That will make the
code easier to read.

libc-internal interfaces should have two underscores in front

Improve NIS performace of getservbyname() and getservbyport(). Both these
functions are implimented as wrappers around getservent(), which means it's
up to getservent() to do all the work. The NIS support in getservent()
only allows it to scan through the services.byname map one entry at a
time until it finds the requested service name/port. This can be painfully
slow due to the overhead involved (lots and lots of successive RPCs).

To fix this, we allow getservbyname() and getservbyport() to signal
getservent() that if NIS is turned on (there's a '+' in /etc/services),
the usual yp_first()/yp_next() linear search should be abandoned and
yp_match() used instead. This causes getservent() to immediately
locate the requested entry instead of wasting time groping through the
whole map.

The downside is that this trick is accomplished by exporting a couple of
pointers from getservent.c which getservbyname.c and getservbyport.c can
preset in order to tell getservent() what to do. If all three functions
were in the same source module, then the extra cruft could be delcared
static to avoid poluting the global symbol space. Maybe they should be
combined anyway. For now I've settled on prepending lots of underscores.
