net: use Go's DNS resolver when system configuration permits

If the machine's network configuration files (resolv.conf,
nsswitch.conf) don't have any unsupported options, prefer Go's DNS
resolver, which doesn't have the cgo & thread over.

It means users can have more than 500 DNS requests outstanding (our
current limit for cgo lookups) and not have one blocked thread per
outstanding request.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
