r10705: fixed a crash bug in the getdcname irpc server for winbind. The
problem was that the return string was declared as: [out] astring dcname which means "this is a non-NULL string". The server code sometimes returned NULL however (on getdc lookup failure), which caused the NDR marshalling code to crash. When you declare a non-pointer return value you are promising that the value can never be NULL. The trivial fix is to use: [out] astring *dcname which leaves the API alone, but includes a pointer in the wire format, which in turn means it is valid to send a NULL string as a response. (This used to be commit e39bac61960f6ce8957f148a482e39499a8e9096)
