GoogleTest should be unbundled. Google changed their guidance a few years back and modern versions of google test cannot build the bundling code file.
This PR also updates to use C++14 as is required by modern GoogleTest versions.

The parser for the sortlist has been rewritten to use the ares__buf_*() functions. This also resolves some known bugs in accepting invalid sortlist entries which should have caused parse failures.

As of c-ares 1.22.0, server timeouts were erroneously not incrementing server failures meaning the server in use wouldn't rotate. There was apparently never a test case for this condition.
This PR fixes the bug and adds a test case to ensure it behaves properly.

Some environments may send router advertisements on a link setting their link-local (fe80::/10) address as a valid DNS server to the remote system. This will cause a DNS entry to be created like `fe80::1%iface`, since all link-local network interfaces are technically part of the same /10 subnet, it must be told what interface to send packets through explicitly if there are multiple physical interfaces.
This PR adds support for the %iface modifier when setting DNS servers via `/etc/resolv.conf` as well as via `ares_set_servers_csv()`.
For MacOS and iOS it is assumed that libresolve will set the `sin6_scope_id` and should be supported, but my test systems don't seem to read the Router Advertisement for RDNSS link-local. Specifying the link-local dns server on MacOS via adig has been tested and confirmed working.
For Windows, this is similar to MacOS in that the system doesn't seem to honor the RDNSS RA, but specifying manually has been tested to work.
At this point, Android support does not exist.

On 32bit systems, a codeblock that would intentionally never
be executed was emitting a warning. Rework the code to
prevent the warning. More code, no behavior difference, but
keeps people from complaining about the warning...

Apparently nodejs is relying on the above behavior for legacy reasons. Add
sanity checks to the various optmask parameters where it makes sense.

Regression from c-ares 1.19.1, ARES_OPT_UDP_PORT and ARES_OPT_TCP_PORT are
specified from the user in host-byte order, but there was a regression that
caused it to be read as if it was network byte order.

c-ares does not have any concept of thread-safety. It has always been 100% up to the implementor to ensure they never call c-ares from more than one thread at a time. This patch adds basic thread-safety support, which can be disabled at compile time if not desired. It uses a single recursive mutex per channel, which should be extremely quick when uncontested so overhead should be minimal.
Fixes Bug: #610
Also sets the stage to implement #611
Fix By: Brad House (@bradh352)
c-ares init options defines a flag ARES_FLAG_NOSEARCH that is supposed to prevent search using configured domain suffixes, however when using ares_getaddrinfo() the flag was ignored and domain suffixes were used anyway.
Configuring zero domains to search also does not work (if ndomains == 0 default domain search list is loaded regardless of the flag ARES_OPT_DOMAINS being set).
This change adds a check for the ARES_FLAG_NOSEARCH in as_is_only() function that is used by ares_getaddrinfo() to decide if to try to query next possible name ( next_dns_lookup() )

c-ares parses only antique version of options for timeout and number of retries from resolv.conf (`retrans` and `retry` are missing in modern documentation https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/resolv.conf.5.html).
I add support of `attempts` and `timeout` options

The timeout calculation was occurring with millisecond precision, but on some systems, there is microsecond precision which could mean we'd tell a user a timeout time prior to the actual timeout.

When building for UWP (WindowsStore), additional headers are needed and some functions are not available. This also adds AppVeyor CI/CD support to catch these issues in the future.

For historic reasons, we have users depending on ares_set_servers_*()
to return ARES_SUCCESS when passing no servers and actually *clear*
the server list. It appears they do this for test cases to simulate
DNS unavailable or similar. Presumably they could achieve the same
effect in other ways (point to localhost on a port that isn't in use).
But it seems like this might be wide-spread enough to cause headaches
so we just will document and test for this behavior, clearly it hasn't
caused "issues" for anyone with the old behavior.

This PR implements a query cache at the lowest possible level, the actual dns request and response messages. Only successful and `NXDOMAIN` responses are cached. The lowest TTL in the response message determines the cache validity period for the response, and is capped at the configuration value for `qcache_max_ttl`. For `NXDOMAIN` responses, the SOA record is evaluated.
For a query to match the cache, the opcode, flags, and each question's class, type, and name are all evaluated. This is to prevent matching a cached entry for a subtly different query (such as if the RD flag is set on one request and not another).
For things like ares_getaddrinfo() or ares_search() that may spawn multiple queries, each individual message received is cached rather than the overarching response. This makes it possible for one query in the sequence to be purged from the cache while others still return cached results which means there is no chance of ever returning stale data.
We have had a lot of user requests to return TTLs on all the various parsers like `ares_parse_caa_reply()`, and likely this is because they want to implement caching mechanisms of their own, thus this PR should solve those issues as well.
Due to the internal data structures we have these days, this PR is less than 500 lines of new code.
