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.

352f4ff9a2 resolv: Introduce struct resolv_context [BZ #21668]
struct resolv_context objects provide a temporary resolver context
which does not change during a name lookup operation.  Only when the
outmost context is created, the stub resolver configuration is
verified to be current (at present, only against previous res_init
calls).  Subsequent attempts to obtain the context will reuse the
result of the initial verification operation.

struct resolv_context can also be extended in the future to store
data which needs to be deallocated during thread cancellation.

a7ff1da823 resolv: Remove internal and unused definitions from <resolv.h>
The RES_F_* constants are only used with the private _res._flags
member.  RES_EXHAUSTIVE is unused.  The removed function
declarations refer to functions not actually exported by glibc,
so they are unusable by applications.
