d00f de0d413c0c dns: show the last lookup with the servers
The answer to a lookup arrives after the command has returned, so the
console of the web interface never shows it. Plain "dns" now prints the
name and the address, or whether it is still pending or failed.

DrDoof 67b8c718fb dns: resolve host names
A small resolver for IPv4 address records, so that clients such as NTP can
be given a host name: "dns server <ip> [<ip>]", "dns lookup <name>" and
"dns". Without a configured server it uses the one DHCP handed out. A query
goes to the servers in turn every two seconds and gives up after six tries;
answers with compressed names and CNAME records ahead of the address are
understood. A name that already is a dotted address is taken without a
query.

The resolver sits in BANK3, the command line in BANK2 next to the helpers it
uses. The System page shows and sets the servers.
