This kind of comment should be added to all functions where this is
allowed. Normally wc_ctx!=NULL throughout libsvn_client, so it is a
very different departure to allow this.

The comment should be adjusted to reference WC_CTX, and to note the
NULL possibility.

"failure to find an access baton" ?? That certainly doesn't make any
sense. The docstring should also mention that if WC_CTX is NULL, then
nothing will ever be returned (*LOCAL_DIR_ABSPATH is set to NULL).
IMO, this function shouldn't even be called in that situation. Callers
should not even be trying functionality which doesn't make sense (ie.
push the WC_CTX check out).

Add comment about WC_CTX.
