aef16cc8a4 resolv: Automatically reload a changed /etc/resolv.conf file [BZ #984]
This commit enhances the stub resolver to reload the configuration
in the per-thread _res object if the /etc/resolv.conf file has
changed.  The resolver checks whether the application has modified
_res and will not overwrite the _res object in that case.

The struct resolv_context mechanism is used to check the
configuration file only once per name lookup.

a1c4eb8794 resolv: Mirror the entire resolver configuration in struct resolv_conf
This commit adds the remaining unchanging members (which are loaded
from /etc/resolv.conf) to struct resolv_conf.

The extended name server list is currently not used by the stub
resolver.  The switch depends on a cleanup: The _u._ext.nssocks
array stores just a single socket, and needs to be replaced with
a single socket value.

(The compatibility gethostname implementation does not use the
extended addres sort list, either.  Updating the compat code is
not worthwhile.)

3f853f22c8 resolv: Lift domain search list limits [BZ #19569] [BZ #21475]
This change uses the extended resolver state in struct resolv_conf to
store the search list.  If applications have not patched the _res
object directly, this extended search list will be used by the stub
resolver during name resolution.

f30a54b21b resolv: Introduce struct resolv_conf with extended resolver state
This change provides additional resolver configuration state which
is not exposed through the _res ABI.  It reuses the existing
initstamp field in the supposedly-private part of _res.  Some effort
is undertaken to avoid memory safety issues introduced by applications
which directly patch the _res object.

With this commit, only the initstamp field is moved into struct
resolv_conf.  Additional members will be added later, eventually
migrating the entire resolver configuration.
