    nss_db: Fix initialization of iteration position [BZ #20237]

    When get*ent is called without a preceding set*ent, we need
    to set the initial iteration position in get*ent.

    Reproducer: Add “services: db files” to /etc/nsswitch.conf, then run
    “perl -e getservent”.  It will segfault before this change, and exit
    silently after it.

    (cherry picked from commit 79ad3fa2b1f38997be255d4eb709da928b66796a)
