ap_ getword — extract one word from a list of words

Synopsis

char *ap_ getword(pool *p, const char **line, char stop)
char *ap_ getword_nc(pool *p, char **line, char stop)

Looks for the first occurrence of stop in *line and copies everything before it to a new buffer, which it returns. If *line contains no stops, the whole of *line is copied. *line is updated to point after the occurrence of stop, skipping multiple instances of stop if present. ap_ getword_nc( ) is a version of ap_ getword() that takes a nonconstant pointer. This is because some C compilers complain if a char ** is passed to a function expecting a const char **.
