In the client API, take the data buffer out of the gpsdata_t structure.
tz has shown me that we had a point of brittleness where the size of the client's data buffer was exposed in gps_data_t. Solution: move it (and the data-waiting count) to the client's private-data member. Requires a new but trivial client-library entry point to get the buffer pointer when a client needs it. Had to be done before API Version 5 froze, or we'd have been stuck breaking a shipped API again. No implications for the daemon or other tools, as this buffer is never used there. (Except it gets rid of several K of never-used static buffer space in the daemon, which is a good thing.) All regression tests pass. Code splints clean. cgps (the only place the API fix matters in our code) live-tests correctly.
