When looping over the current list of sockets we are connected to,
use getpeername() not getsockname() to find out who the remote
end is. This change avoids spurious close() and (rare) failure.
Origin: ISC bug #18625 and fixed in libbind 6.0

This happens too frequently. We should flush a per-interface cache
when it's dns server addrs changes.

Initial commit for dns cache per interface.
Added a type that holds a reference to a
cache and name of associated interface,
address of interface, name server(s)
associated with an interface etc.
New functions to set default interface,
address of name servers etc.

NOTE: This is a back-port from the internal HC branch.
This patch fixes a leak that occurs when creating a new
thread-specific DNS resolver state object.
Essentially, each thread that calls gethostbyname() or getaddrinfo()
at least once will leak a small memory block. Another leak happens
anytime these functions are called after a change of the network
settings.
The leak is insignificant and hard to notice on typical programs.
However, netd tends to create one new thread for each DNS request
it processes, and quickly grows in size after a > 20 hours.
The same problem is seen in other system processes that tend to
create one thread per request too.
The leak occured becasue res_ninit() was called twice when creating
a new thread-specific DNS resolver state in _res_get_thread().
This function could not properly reset an existing thread and was
leaking a memory block.
The patch does two things:
- First, it fixes res_ninit() to prevent any leakage when resetting
the state of a given res_state instance.
- Second, it modifies the _res_get_thread() implementation to
make it more explicit, and avoid calling res_ninit() twice
in a row on first-time creation.

Use system property ro.net.dns_cache_size to set
the size of the cache. If the system property
is not set the default cache size is defined by
CONFIG_MAX_ENTRIES.
The number of entries in the hash table will be equal
to the number of max entries allowed in the cache.

Use the the TTL of the answer as the time a query
shall remain in the resolver cache.
Added some debugging support as well, i.e.
parse answer and print a la dig.

The problem was that the 'defdname' field of res_state structure
was not properly initialized in __res_vinit(). This field is used
to store the default domain name, which is normally build from
calling gethostname() (see line 549 of res_init.c).
Unfortunately, in the typical Android case, gethostname() returns
an error (the hostname is configured) and a random stack string is
used later to build the DNS search list (see lines 556+ in res_init.c)
For the sake of illustration, let's say the search list is set to
a random value like 'xWLK'.
The end result is that when trying to result an unknown domain name
(e.g. 'www.ptn'), the query fails then the resolver tries to make a
new query with the DNS search list path(s) appended (e.g. 'www.ptn.xWLK').
The patch simply initializes 'defdname' to an empty string to avoid
this when the net.dns.search system property is not set.

Merge commit '3773d35eb98e22b5edab4d82fb72bdf86ff80494'
* commit '3773d35eb98e22b5edab4d82fb72bdf86ff80494':
Make the DNS resolver accept domain names with an underscore.
More precisely, this accepts domain labels with an underscore in
the middle (i.e. not at the start or the end of the label). This
is needed to perform complex CNAME chain resolution in certain
VPN networks.
The current solution is to read the net.dns.search property,
and expand the list during the resolve initialization. In the
future, we could implement search list per process.
Update: refine the code accordingly.
Update: remove unnecessary code.
Update: remove the unused variable.
