the AD (authenticated data) bit in outgoing dns queries is defined by
rfc3655 to request that the nameserver report (via the same bit in the
response) whether the result is authenticated by DNSSEC. while all
results returned by a DNSSEC conforming nameserver will be either
authenticated or cryptographically proven to lack DNSSEC protection,
for some applications it's necessary to be able to distinguish these
two cases. in particular, conforming and compatible handling of DANE
(TLSA) records requires enforcing them only in signed zones.
when the AD bit was first defined for queries, there were reports of
compatibility problems with broken firewalls and nameservers dropping
queries with it set. these problems are probably a thing of the past,
and broken nameservers are already unsupported. however, since there
is no use in the AD bit with the netdb.h interfaces, explicitly clear
it in the queries they make. this ensures that, even with broken
setups, the standard functions will work, and at most the res_*
functions break.

libc.h was intended to be a header for access to global libc state and
related interfaces, but ended up included all over the place because
it was the way to get the weak_alias macro. most of the inclusions
removed here are places where weak_alias was needed. a few were
recently introduced for hidden. some go all the way back to when
libc.h defined CANCELPT_BEGIN and _END, and all (wrongly implemented)
cancellation points had to include it.
remaining spurious users are mostly callers of the LOCK/UNLOCK macros
and files that use the LFS64 macro to define the awful *64 aliases.
in a few places, new inclusion of libc.h is added because several
internal headers no longer implicitly include libc.h.
declarations for __lockfile and __unlockfile are moved from libc.h to
stdio_impl.h so that the latter does not need libc.h. putting them in
libc.h made no sense at all, since the macros in stdio_impl.h are
needed to use them correctly anyway.

trailing . should be accepted in domain name strings by convention
(RFC 1034), host name lookup accepts "." but rejects empty "", res_*
interfaces also accept empty name following existing practice.

A domain name is at most 255 bytes long (RFC 1035), but the string
representation is two bytes smaller so the strlen maximum is 253.

this is the second phase of the "resolver overhaul" project.
the key additions in this commit are the __res_msend and __res_mkquery
functions, which have been factored so as to provide a backend for
both the legacy res_* functions and the standard getaddrinfo and
getnameinfo functions. the latter however are still using the old
backend code; there is code duplication which still needs to be
removed, and this will be the next phase of the resolver overhaul.
__res_msend is derived from the old __dns_doqueries function, but
generalized to send arbitrary caller-provided packets in parallel
rather than producing the parallel queries itself. this allows it to
be used (completely trivially) as a backend for res_send. the
factored-out query generation code, with slightly more generality, is
now part of __res_mkquery.
