As per #852 searching is failing, partially it is due to the ndots value
not defaulting to a proper value on linux, and partially due to
systemd-resolved returning the wrong error codes.
This PR fixes the first issue and adds containerized test cases to
validate the behavior and prevent issues in the future.

`ares_channel` is defined as `typedef struct ares_channeldata *ares_channel;`. The problem with this, is it embeds the pointer into the typedef, which means an `ares_channel` can never be declared as `const` as if you write `const ares_channel channel`, that expands to `struct ares_channeldata * const ares_channel` and not `const struct ares_channeldata *channel`.
We will now typedef `ares_channel_t` as `typedef struct ares_channeldata ares_channel_t;`, so if you write `const ares_channel_t *channel`, it properly expands to `const struct ares_channeldata *channel`.
We are maintaining the old typedef for API compatibility with existing integrations, and due to typedef expansion this should not even cause any compiler warnings for existing code. There are no ABI implications with this change. I could be convinced to keep existing public functions as `ares_channel` if a sufficient argument exists, but internally we really need make this change for modern best practices.
This change will allow us to internally use `const ares_channel_t *` where appropriate. Whether or not we decide to change any public interfaces to use `const` may require further discussion on if there might be ABI implications (I don't think so, but I'm also not 100% sure what a compiler internally does with `const` when emitting machine code ... I think more likely ABI implications would occur going the opposite direction).
FYI, This PR was done via a combination of sed and clang-format, the only manual code change was the addition of the new typedef, and a couple doc fixes :)

c-ares uses multiple code styles, standardize on one. Talking with @bagder he feels strongly about maintaining an 80 column limit, but feels less strongly about things I feel strongly about (like alignment).
Can re-run the formatter on the codebase via:
```
clang-format -i */*.c */*.h */*/*.c */*/*.h
```

The rc4 function iterates over a buffer of size buffer_len who's maximum
value is INT_MAX with a counter of type short that is not guaranteed to
have maximum size INT_MAX.
In circumstances where short is narrower than int and where buffer_len
is larger than the maximum value of a short, it may be possible to loop
infinitely as counter will overflow and never be greater than or equal
to buffer_len.
The solution is to make the comparison be between types of equal width.
This commit defines counter as an int.
