fix handling of dns response codes
rcode of 3 (NxDomain) was treated as a hard EAI_NONAME failure, but it should instead return 0 (no results) so the caller can continue searching. this will be important for adding search domain support. the top-level caller will automatically return EAI_NONAME if there are zero results at the end. also, the case where rcode is 0 (success) but there are no results was not handled. this happens when the domain exists but there are no A or AAAA records for it. in this case a hard EAI_NONAME should be imposed to inhibit further search, since the name was defined and just does not have any address associated with it. previously a misleading hard failure of EAI_FAIL was reported.
