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.
