fix return value of gethostby{name[2],addr} with no result but no error

commit f081d5336a80b68d3e1bed789cc373c5c3d6699b fixed
gethostbyname[2]_r to treat negative results as a non-error, leaving
gethostbyname[2] wrongly returning a pointer to the unfilled result
buffer rather than a null pointer. since, as documented with commit
fe82bb9b921be34370e6b71a1c6f062c20999ae0, the caller of
gethostby{name[2],addr}_r can always rely on the result pointer being
set, use that consistently rather than trying to duplicate logic about
whether we have a result or not in gethostby{name[2],addr}.
