OSTC extra info (deco model and deco model info) not downloading correctly in newer Subsurface releases (5.0.7 and 5.0.8)

Someone replied over at the Heinrichs Weikamp forum (
https://forum.heinrichsweikamp.com/viewtopic.php?p=23678#p23678) saying
that it looks like libdivecomputer is using the wrong memory addresses for
this information (this was correct previously). A pull request (
https://github.com/subsurface/libdc/pull/32) has been generated that
hopefully reverts this.

I'll try to build locally with those adjustments and see if this
straightens things out for me.
