Many places in cares library, when the stream data arrives
from the network with respect to dns and reverse dns
resolution, they are populated into data structures created
dymaically based on the size of the data. Malloc is heavily
used for such cases.
Often, based on the data length, malloc(0) is invoked. Linux
behavior on zero byte allocation is to return a valid pointer
where in AIX, it always return NULL.
This manifestst as test failure of test/internet/test-dns.js
Solution is to build cares with Linux compatible malloc behavior

On Windows, when compiling with `UNICODE` defined, `LoadLibrary` becomes
`LoadLibraryW`. When an ASCII string is passed to that function it
crashes.

These are the core changes that allow AIX to compile. There
are still some test failures as there are some patches needed for
libuv and npm that we'll need to contribute through those
communities but this set allows node to be built on AIX and
pass most of the core tests
The change in js2c is because AIX does not support $ in
identifier names. See the discussion/agreement in

Original commit message:
ares_parse_txt_reply: return a ares_txt_reply node for each sub-string
Previously, the function would wrongly return all substrings merged into
one.
