API design for library to be used by testcases and ausearch

[Debora Velarde]

Some of us at IBM have been discussing the possibility of having an API 
which can be used by testcases and tools, such as ausearch, to get 
information form the audit subsystem.
I'm attaching our proposal for what the API structures would look like as 
well as prototypes for functions that testcases and ausearch would need in 
order to get the data they need.

Note the structures are based on the current audit records and will need 
to be updated as record types and fields are modified.

Please look them over and send us any feedback.

Thanks,
debbie

The following was designed by Loulwa Salem, Michael Thompson, and myself 
with some feedback from Tim Chavez.
