Handle the case of a DNS server on localhost

Browse Source 
By default, passt detects the nameserver used by the host system by reading
/etc/resolv.conf, and advertises that to the guest via DHCP.  However this
breaks down if the host's nameserver is local (on 127.0.0.1 or ::1);
connecting to localhost on the guest won't reach the host's nameserver.

Using a local nameserver is a reasonably common case when using dnsmasq
or similar to merge name resolution on a home network with name resolution
from an organization-private VPN.

We already have the gateway mapping support to allow reaching host-local
services from the guest via the address of the default gateway.  Add code
to detect the case of a local DNS server and use the gateway mapping to
advertise it usefully to the guest.
