Creates an input terminal on an instance of a node object, returning the address of the terminal object that was created. The terminal object is destroyed by the message broker when its owning node is destroyed.
You must call this function only from within the implementation function cniCreateNodeContext.
If successful, the address of the node terminal object is returned. Otherwise, a value of zero (CCI_NULL_ADDR) is returned.
