727a2ffb93 Easier to use ipa_gethostfqdn()
ipa_gethostfqdn() now returns a pointer to a statically allocated buffer
or NULL in case of an error. The caller no longer has to supply a
correctly allocated buffer.

Rename IPA_HOST_HOST to_LEN IPA_HOST_FQDN_LEN and use IPA_HOST_FQDN_LEN
wherever code copies a hostname supplied from ipa_gethostfqdn().

Clarify that MAXHOSTNAMELEN and MAXHOSTFQDNLEN are different things.

e28ec76898 Unify access to FQDN
FreeIPA's Python and C code used different approaches to get the FQDN of
the host. Some places assumed that gethostname() returns a FQDN. Other
code paths used glibc's resolver to resolve the current node name to a
FQDN.

Python code now uses the ipalib.constants.FQDN where a fully qualified
domain name is expected. The variable is initialized only once and avoids
potential DNS lookups.

C code uses a new helper function ipa_gethostfqdn() in util package. The
function implements similar logic as gethostfqdn() except it uses more
modern getaddrinfo(). The result is cached as well.
