fix circular reference: detect DHCP DNS when scutil shows loopback

When numa install is active, scutil --dns only returns 127.0.0.1.
Previously fell back to 9.9.9.9 (Quad9) which fails on networks
that block external DNS. Now reads DHCP-provided DNS from
ipconfig getpacket en0/en1 as intermediate fallback before Quad9.

Tested on a network that blocks 8.8.8.8, 9.9.9.9, 1.1.1.1 but
allows ISP DNS (213.154.124.25) — Numa now auto-detects and uses it.
