After consolidating DNS resolver code to lib/addns, there is one piece
that still needs to be moved into a common DNS resolver library: DNS_HOSTS_FILE
subsystem. Unfortunately, direct move would require lib/addns to depend on
libcli/util/{ntstatus.h,werror.h} (provided by errors subsystem).
In addition, moving libcli/dns/* code to lib/addns/ would make conflicting
the dns_tkey_record struct. The conflict comes from source4/dns_server/ and is due
to use of IDL to define the struct. lib/addns/ library also provides its own definition
so we either need to keep them in sync (rewrite code in lib/addns/ a bit) or
depend on generated IDL headers.
Thus, making a private library and subsystem clidns is an intermediate step
that allows to buy some time fore refactoring.
