Implement DNS with a temporary solution
The DNS resolution implemented with this commit uses getaddrinfo() from
the standard library to get an IPv4 address for the domainpart of the
user-given Jabber ID (JID).
This is by far not the process described in [RFC 6120][1]. This XMPP
core standard prefers SRV entry lookups. Taking A records like in this
implementation is referenced as "fallback process".
Furthermore this implementation just takes the first A record it finds
which could also be improved. It could for example be that IPv4 is
blocked in the referenced network and a AAAA IPv6 record is given and
functional. In this case this implementation would needlessly fail to connect.
