Planner: don't return static data in fake_dc()

fake_dc() used to return a statically allocated dc with statically
allocated samples. This is of course a questionable practice in
the light of multi-threading / resource ownership. Once these
problems were recognized, the parameter "alloc" was added. If set
to true, the function would still return a statically allocated
dc, but heap-allocated samples, which could then be copied in
a different dc.

All in all an ownership nightmare and a recipie for disaster.
The returned static dc was only used as a pointer to the samples
anyway. There are four callers of fake_dc() and they all have access
to a dc-structure without samples. Therefore, change the semantics
of fake_dc() to fill out the passed in dc. If the caller does
not care about the samples, it can simply reset the sample number
to zero after work.
