[libhivex] Patch implementing hivex_node_get_child_deep
...ad the root of, say, HKLM. When I first used libhivex, I
assumed hivex_node_get_child would take such a path, but then learned that
it only scans the children of the current node for a match.
I do realize that hivex_node_get_child has a O(n) where n is the number of
keys in the node and this means hivex_node_get_child_deep has a O(mn) where
m is the number of \-separated paths; but the extra *m overhead is always
going to be there when iterating through a registry hive.
I tried to stick to the coding conventions as close as possible, and to
keep the changes to a minimal. Please note that I was not sure where the
fun...
