[Libvir] PATCH: Use --strict-order with dnsmasq

A bug reported by David Lutterkort... The 'man resolv.conf' docs for 'nameserver' say [quote] nameserver Name server IP address Internet address (in dot notation) of a name server that the resolver should query. Up to MAXNS (currently 3, see <resolv.h>) name servers may be listed, one per keyword. If there are multi- ple servers, the resolver library queries them in the order listed. If no nameserver entries are present, the default is to use the name server on the local machine. (The algorithm used is to try a name server, and if the query times out, try the next, until out of name servers, then repeat trying all the name servers until a maximum number of retries are made.) [/quote] While 'man dnsmasq' docs for 'strict-order' say: [quote] -o, --strict-order By default, dnsmasq will send queries to any of the upstream servers it knows about and tries to favour servers to are known to be up. Setting this flag forces dnsmasq to try each query with each server strictly in the order they appear in /etc/resolv.conf [/quote] So by default, the algorithm dnsmasq uses for DNS lookups is a) Different from that use by GLibC b) Wrong Thus I think we should always use --strict-order when running dnsmasq.
