Razvan Dimescu 5b2cc874a1 feat: TCP fallback, query minimization, UDP auto-disable ...

Transport resilience for restrictive networks (ISPs blocking UDP:53):
- DNS-over-TCP fallback: UDP fail/truncation → automatic TCP retry
- UDP auto-disable: after 3 consecutive failures, switch to TCP-first
- IPv6 → TCP directly (UDP socket binds 0.0.0.0, can't reach IPv6)
- Network change resets UDP detection for re-probing
- Root hint rotation in TLD priming

Privacy:
- RFC 7816 query minimization: root servers see TLD only, not full name

Code quality:
- Merged find_starting_ns + find_starting_zone → find_closest_ns
- Extracted resolve_ns_addrs_from_glue shared helper
- Removed overall timeout wrapper (per-hop timeouts sufficient)
- forward_tcp for DNS-over-TCP (RFC 1035 §4.2.2)

Testing:
- Mock TCP-only DNS server for fallback tests (no network needed)
- tcp_fallback_resolves_when_udp_blocked
- tcp_only_iterative_resolution
- tcp_fallback_handles_nxdomain
- udp_auto_disable_resets
- Integration test suite (4 suites, 51 tests)
- Network probe script (tests/network-probe.sh)
