Avoid buffer overflow in RC4 loop comparison (#336) The rc4 function iterates over a buffer of size buffer_len who's maximum value is INT_MAX with a counter of type short that is not guaranteed to have maximum size INT_MAX. In circumstances where short is narrower than int and where buffer_len is larger than the maximum value of a short, it may be possible to loop infinitely as counter will overflow and never be greater than or equal to buffer_len. The solution is to make the comparison be between types of equal width. This commit defines counter as an int. Fix By: Fionn Fitzmaurice (@fionn)

.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B ares_parse_mx_reply
function parses the response to a query of type MX into a
linked list of
.I struct ares_mx_reply
The parameters
.I abuf
and
.I alen
give the contents of the response. The result is stored in allocated
memory and a pointer to it stored into the variable pointed to by
.IR mx_out .
It is the caller's responsibility to free the resulting
.IR mx_out
structure when it is no longer needed using the function
docs: provide better man page references When referring to another c-ares function use \fI function(3) \fP to let the webpage rendering find and cross-link them appropriately. SEE ALSO references should be ".BR name (3),", with a space before the open parenthesis. This helps the manpage to HTML renderer. Closes #565
