- Include audit_internal.h to get definition of internal audit record
structures, as it's no longer in audit.h. Forward declare au_record
in audit_private.h as not all audit_private.h consumers care about
it.
- Remove __APPLE__ compatibility bits that are subsumed by configure
for user space.
- Don't expose in6_addr internals (non-portable, but also cleaner
looking).
- Avoid nested include of audit.h in audit_private.h.

applications to insert a "tee" in the live audit event stream. Records
are inserted into a per-clone queue so that user processes can pull
discreet records out of the queue. Unlike delivery to disk, audit pipes
are "lossy", dropping records in low memory conditions or when the
process falls behind real-time events. This mechanism is appropriate
for use by live monitoring systems, host-based intrusion detection, etc,
and avoids applications having to dig through active on-disk trails that
are owned by the audit daemon.
