  MacOSX: ctypes annotation in implementation of getproxies_macosx_sysconf

  getproxies_macosx_sysconf uses ctypes to call SystemConfiguration APIs. This
  checkin adds ctypes annotation to specify the right argument types for the
  API's that are used.

  This is needed to be able to use urllib on a 64-bit system, without
  annotations you'd get a hard crash.
