/**
 * \file
 *
 * This file contains the unbound interface for use with libevent.
 * You have to use the same libevent that unbound was compiled with,
 * otherwise it wouldn't work, the event and event_base structures would
 * be different.  If unbound is compiled without libevent support then
 * this header file is not supposed to be installed on the system.
 *
 * Use ub_ctx_create_event_base() to create an unbound context that uses
 * the event base that you have made.  Then, use the ub_resolve_event call
 * to add DNS resolve queries to the context.  Those then run when you
 * call event_dispatch() on your event_base, and when they are done you
 * get a function callback.
 *
 * This method does not fork another process or create a thread, the effort
 * is done by the unbound state machines that are connected to the event_base.

 * @param ctx: context with event_base in it.
 *	The context is finalized, and can no longer accept all config changes.
 * @param name: domain name in text format (a string).
 * @param rrtype: type of RR in host order, 1 is A.
 * @param rrclass: class of RR in host order, 1 is IN (for internet).
 * @param mydata: this data is your own data (you can pass NULL),
 * 	and is passed on to the callback function.
 * @param callback: this is called on completion of the resolution.
 * 	It is called as:
 * 	void callback(void* mydata, int rcode, void* packet, int packet_len,
 * 		int sec, char* why_bogus)
 * 	with mydata: the same as passed here, you may pass NULL,
 * 	with rcode: 0 on no error, nonzero for mostly SERVFAIL situations,
 *		this is a DNS rcode.
 *	with packet: a buffer with DNS wireformat packet with the answer.
 *		do not inspect if rcode != 0.
 *		do not write or free the packet buffer, it is used internally
 *		in unbound (for other callbacks that want the same data).
 *	with packet_len: length in bytes of the packet buffer.
 *	with sec: 0 if insecure, 1 if bogus, 2 if DNSSEC secure.
 *	with why_bogus: text string explaining why it is bogus (or NULL).
 *	These point to buffers inside unbound; do not deallocate the packet or
 *	error string.
 *
 * 	If an error happens during processing, your callback will be called
 * 	with error set to a nonzero value (and result==NULL).
 * 	For localdata (etc/hosts) the callback is called immediately, before
 * 	resolve_event returns, async_id=0 is returned.
 * @param async_id: if you pass a non-NULL value, an identifier number is
 *	returned for the query as it is in progress. It can be used to
 *	cancel the query.
 * @return 0 if OK, else error.
