loc_database_lookup - Lookup a network from the database
#include <libloc/database.h>
int loc_database_lookup(struct loc_database* db, const struct in6_addr* address, struct loc_network** network);
int loc_database_lookup_from_string(struct loc_database* db, const char* string, struct loc_network** network);
The lookup functions try finding a network in the database.
loc_database_lookup takes the IP address as struct in6_addr format which can either be a regular IPv6 address or a mapped IPv4 address.
loc_database_lookup_string takes the IP address as string and will parse it automatically.
On success, zero is returned. Otherwise non-zero is being returned and errno is set accordingly.
