Currently the qemu user-mode networking stack reads the host DNS
configuration (/etc/resolv.conf or the Windows equivalent) only once
when qemu starts. This causes name lookups in the guest to fail if the
host is moved to a different network from which the original DNS servers
are unreachable, a common occurrence when the host is a laptop.
This patch changes the slirp code to read the host DNS configuration on
demand, caching the results for at most 1 second to avoid unnecessary
overhead if name lookups occur in rapid succession. On non-Windows
hosts, /etc/resolv.conf is re-read only if the file has been replaced or
if its size or mtime has changed.

Three problems with our_addr:
- It's determined only once when qemu starts, but the address can change
(just like the DNS configuration can).
- It's supposed to be the IP address of a host network interface, but
there's no guarantee that gethostbyname(gethostname()) actually does
that: the host might be a laptop that has only a loopback interface up,
or the hostname might be localhost.localdomain, etc.
- It's useless at best: get_dns_addr() calls it, there's no reason to
send DNS requests to a different IP address if you're running a DNS
server on the host and resolv.conf points to 127.0.0.1.
These problems are easily solved by removing the code.

Allocate the internal slirp state dynamically and provide and call
slirp_cleanup to properly release it after use. This patch finally
unbreaks slirp release and re-instantiation via host_net_* monitor
commands.

The essence of this patch is to stuff (almost) all global variables of
the slirp stack into the structure Slirp. In this step, we still keep
the structure as global variable, directly accessible by the whole
stack. Changes to the external interface of slirp will be applied in
the following patches.

Drop redundant typecasts in both variants and remove the pointless

With the internal IP configuration made more flexible, we can now
enhance the user interface. This patch adds a number of new options to
"-net user": net (address and mask), host, dhcpstart, dns and smbserver.
It also renames "redir" to "hostfwd" and "channel" to "guestfwd" in
order to (hopefully) clarify their meanings. The format of guestfwd is
extended so that the user can define not only the port but also the
virtual server's IP address the forwarding starts from.

The user mode IP stack is currently only minimally configurable /wrt to
its virtual IP addresses. This is unfortunate if some guest has a fixed
idea of which IP addresses to use.
Therefore this patch prepares the stack for fully configurable IP
addresses and masks. The user interface and default addresses remain
untouched in this step, they will be enhanced in the following patch.

So far a couple of slirp-related parameters were expressed via
stand-alone command line options. This it inconsistent and unintuitive.
Moreover, it prevents both dynamically reconfigured (host_net_add/
delete) and multi-instance slirp.
This patch refactors the configuration by turning -smb, -redir, -tftp
and -bootp as well as -net channel into options of "-net user". The old
stand-alone command line options are still processed, but no longer
advertised. This allows smooth migration of management applications to
to the new syntax and also the extension of that syntax later in this
series.
