Fix build warnings in resolv/res_send.c
This patch fixes the gcc warnings seen with gcc 9 -march>=z13 on s390x:
res_send.c: In function ‘__res_context_send’:
res_send.c:498:7: error: ‘resplen’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  498 |    if (n == 0 && (buf2 == NULL || *resplen2 == 0))
      |       ^

In this case send_vc is inlined into __res_context_send
and the maybe uninitialized resplen belongs to the one in send_vc.

In send_vc there is already a DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT (5, "-Wmaybe-uninitialized")
and a comment which explains that this is a false-positive.
Note that resplen is used as return value.

This patch adds a further DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT around the declaration of n
in __res_context_send and the comparison after n was set to the return value of send_vc.

ChangeLog:

	* resolv/res_send.c (__res_context_send): Disable maybe-uninitialized
	warning.
