[init] Disallow starting up with conflicting paramters for -dnsseed and -forcednsseed

-dnsseed determines whether we run ThreadDNSAddressSeed and potentially query
the DNS seeds for addresses. -forcednsseed tells the node to force querying the
DNS seeds even if we have sufficient addresses or current connections.

This commit disallows starting up with explicitly conflicting parameters.
