The autotools rewrite in c-ares 1.25 might have broken detection
of __system_property_get() which is needed on Android versions
prior to v8 in order to read DNS server settings.

TSAN is warning about a thread concurrency issue that doesn't actually matter if the operation isn't atomic as its an optimization in this code path to skip timeout processing if we're shutting down due to ares_destroy().

As reported on Android 14, which recently added a fortify check for fcntl
F_SETFD to make sure only FD_CLOEXEC is ever passed:
dfe67d266c
We can't pass anything else to it. Even though on glibc, O_CLOEXEC
and FD_CLOEXEC are the same value, this isn't defined to be
portable in any way.

As per Issue #883, an incorrect `libcares.pc` can be generated when
`CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT` contains a value like `-lpthread` because it
gets added to `libcares.pc` with another `-l` prefix. We can't control
the behavior of `CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT` since its set by `FIND_PACKAGE
(Threads)`.
Lets strip the `-l` prefix from the library before adding it to
`CARES_DEPENDENT_LIBS` which is used in the generation of `libcares.pc`.

Make ahost a dependency of adig to prevent issues with them both

`ares__hosts_entry_to_hostent()` would allocate a separate buffer for
each address, but `ares_free_hostent()` expects a single allocation to
hold all addresses.
This PR fixes this issue and simplifies the logic by using the
already-existing `ares__addrinfo2hostent()` to write the hostent instead
of coming up with yet another way to write the structure.

UDP is connectionless, but systems use ICMP unreachable messages to
indicate there is no ability to reach the host or port, which can result
in a `send()` returning an error like `ECONNREFUSED`. We need to handle
non-retryable codes like that to treat it as a connection failure so we
requeue any queries on that connection to another connection/server
immediately. Otherwise what happens is we just wait on the timeout to
expire which can greatly increase the time required to get a definitive
message.
This also adds a test case to verify the behavior.

c-ares utilizes recursion for some operations, and some of these
processes can have unintended side effects, such as if a callback
is called that then recurses into the same function. This can cause
strange cleanup conditions that lead to crashes.
Try to disassociate queries with connections as early as possible and
move cleaning up unneeded connections to its own scan rather than
trying to detect each time a query is disassociated from a connection.

We've had reports of user-after-free type crashes in Windows cleanup
code for the Event Thread. In evaluating the code, it appeared there
were some memory leaks on per-connection handles that may have remained
open during shutdown, while trying to resolve that it became apparent
the methodology chosen may not have been the right one for interfacing
with the Windows AFD system as stability issues were seen during this
debugging process.
Since this system is completely undocumented, there was no clear
resolution path other than to switch to the *other* methodology which
involves directly opening `\Device\Afd`, rather than spawning a "peer
socket" to use to queue AFD operations.
The original methodology chosen more closely resembled what is employed
by [libuv](https://github.com/libuv/libuv) and given its widespread use
was the reason it was used. The new methodology more closely resembles
[wepoll](https://github.com/piscisaureus/wepoll).
Its not clear if there are any scalability or performance advantages or
disadvantages for either method. They both seem like different ways to
do the same thing, but this current way does seem more stable.

On some broken MacOS SDK versions, if HAVE_UNISTD_H is defined, it
must be defined to 1, otherwise it will cause build errors. Autotools
always defines to 1, but CMake doesn't.

The DNS message protocol when using non-binary strings needs to be in
the ASCII printable range. The function prototype does elude to this
but it was not actually validating the string was in anyway valid and
could be used. DNS parsing will now fail if an expected string isn't
an ASCII string.

salen validation should be greater than or equal to the required
storage size. Its not uncommon to use `struct sockaddr_storage` in
modern code which is definitely larger than `struct sockaddr_in` and
on some systems even larger than `struct sockaddr_in6`.
