In order to use the new "memcpy() a 'blank' struct on the stack"
pattern for string_list_init(), and to make the macro initialization
consistent with the function initialization introduce two new
string_list_init_{nodup,dup}() functions. These are like the old
string_list_init() when called with a false and true second argument,
respectively.
I think this not only makes things more consistent, but also easier to
read. I often had to lookup what the ", 0)" or ", 1)" in these
invocations meant, now it's right there in the function name, and
corresponds to the macros.
A subsequent commit will convert existing API users to this pattern,
but as this is a very common API let's leave a compatibility function
in place for later removal. This intermediate state also proves that
the compatibility function works.
