Daniel Stenberg e5d3226694 bug 1434852 - introducing TRR (DOH); r=mcmanus,valentin
Provides an optional resolver mechanism for Firefox that allows running
together with or instead of the native resolver.

TRR offers resolving of host names using a dedicated DNS-over-HTTPS server
(HTTPS is required, HTTP/2 is preferable).

DNS-over-HTTPS (DOH) allows DNS resolves with enhanced privacy, secure
transfers and improved performance.

To keep the failure rate at a minimum, the TRR system manages a dynamic
persistent blacklist for host names that can't be resolved with DOH but works
with the native resolver. Blacklisted entries will not be retried over DOH for
a couple of days. "localhost" and names in the ".local" TLD will not be
resolved via DOH.

TRR is preffed OFF by default and you need to set a URI for an available DOH
server to be able to use it. Since the URI for DOH is set with a name itself,
it may have to use the native resolver for bootstrapping. (Optionally, the
user can set the IP address of the DOH server in a pref to avoid the required
initial native resolve.)

When TRR starts up, it will first verify that it works by checking a
"confirmation" domain name. This confirmation domain is a pref by default set
to "example.com". TRR will also by default await the captive-portal detection
to raise its green flag before getting activated.

All prefs for TRR are under the "network.trr" hierarchy.
