Add DNS support

On 04 Oct 2008 Pieter posted a dns implementation for U-Boot.

Here it is again - slightly modified & smaller:
  - update to 2009-06 (Pieter's patch was for U-Boot 1.2.0)
  - README.dns is added
  - syntax is changed (now takes a third option, the env var to store
    the result in)
  - add a random port() function in net.c
  - sort Makefile in ./net/Makefile
  - dns just returns unless a env var is given
  - run through checkpatch, and clean up style issues
  - remove packet from stack
  - cleaned up some comments
  - failure returns much faster (if server responds, don't wait for
    timeout)
  - use built in functions (memcpy) rather than byte copy.
