Done.
I split "add_to_conversation()" into a "conversation_new()" routine to
create a new conversation given source and destination addresses and
ports, and a "find_conversation()" routine that tries to find a
conversation given source and destination addresses and ports.
Both return a pointer to the conversation structure;
"find_conversation()" returns NULL if not found.
"conversation_new()" takes an additional "void *" argument, which
becomes the "data" member of the structure to which it returns a
pointer; that's for use by the client of the conversation code.
