Nick Mathewson 00b2b69add Fix names of functions that convert strings to addrs
Now let's have "lookup" indicate that there can be a hostname
resolution, and "parse" indicate that there wasn't.  Previously, we
had one "lookup" function that did resolution; four "parse" functions,
half of which did resolution; and a "from_str()" function that didn't
do resolution.  That's confusing and error-prone!

The code changes in this commit are exactly the result of this perl
script, run under "perl -p -i.bak" :

  s/tor_addr_port_parse/tor_addr_port_lookup/g;
  s/parse_addr_port(?=[^_])/addr_port_lookup/g;
  s/tor_addr_from_str/tor_addr_parse/g;

This patch leaves aton and pton alone: their naming convention and
behavior is is determined by the sockets API.

More renaming may be needed.

o Code simplifications and refactoring:
- Rename Tor functions that turn strings into addresses, so that
"parse" indicates that no hostname resolution occurs, and
"lookup" indicates that hostname resolution may occur. This
should help prevent mistakes in the future. Fixes bug 3512.
