Add a negative DNS cache

This patch currently implements an extremely simplified negative cache.
Meaning it keeps track of instances when the domain name failed to resolve.

Domains attempting to resolve should first look in the cache to see if a given
domain is contained within. If a matching, non-expired entry is found then
domain name resolution should be skipped with a failure assumed. If the domain
is not found, or the entry has expired then an attempt should made to resolve
it. If it fails to resolve the domain name should then be added to the cache.

Subsequent failures when resolving the domain name should update the matching
entry, thus doubling its expiration timeout.

A background task also executes every so often to check for stale records.
A stale record is a cache entry that has expired, but has not been updated
for a given interval. Any stale records found are removed from the cache.

A couple of CLI commands have also been added:

    'dns cache show' - Display all entries in the cache
    'dns cache delete [all]|<name>' - Remove all entries or a single one by name
