nss_db: Fix initialization of iteration position [BZ #20237]

When get*ent is called without a preceding set*ent, we need
to set the initial iteration position in get*ent.

Reproducer: Add “services: db files” to /etc/nsswitch.conf, then run
“perl -e getservent”.  It will segfault before this change, and exit
silently after it.
