The documentation for this function says that the smartlist can
contain NULLs, but the code only handled NULLs if they were at the
start of the list.
We didn't notice this for a long time, because when Tor is run
normally, the sequence of msg_id_t is densely packed, and so this
list (mapping msg_id_t to channel_id_t) contains no NULL elements.
We could only run into this bug:
* when Tor was running in embedded mode, and starting more than once.
* when Tor ran first with more pubsub messages enabled, and then
later with fewer.
* When the second run (the one with fewer enabled pubsub messages)
had at least some messages enabled, and those messages were not
the ones with numerically highest msg_id_t values.
Fixes bug 31898; bugfix on 47de9c7b0a828de7fb8129413db70bc4e4ecac6d
in 0.4.1.1-alpha.

Since we want to make this function slightly more visible for testing
purposes, it needs a better name.

Previously, I had used integers encoded as pointers. This
introduced a flaw: NULL represented both the integer zero, and the
absence of a setting. This in turn made the checks in
cfg_msg_set_{type,chan}() not actually check for an altered value if
the previous value had been set to zero.
Also, I had previously kept a pointer to a dispatch_fypefns_t rather
than making a copy of it. This meant that if the dispatch_typefns_t
were changed between defining the typefns and creating the
dispatcher, we'd get the modified version.
Found while investigating coverage in pubsub_add_{pub,sub}_()

This module implements a way to send messages from one module to
another, with associated data types. It does not yet do anything to
ensure that messages are correct, that types match, or that other
forms of consistency are preserved.
