When the API domain is looked up, respond with the server closest to the user.
When a hosted subdomain is looked up, respond with the server on the continent stored in the database for that domain.

@andrenatal Ignore Travis, compilation works fine locally and on AWS.

@andrenatal Unfortunately, I couldn't get the PowerDNS geoip module to play well with the "remote" module that we've implemented in this server, so I just did the geoip myself in rust.

It's not running on staging yet. I wanted to make sure this all looked sane before I spent any time doing AWS work. Thanks for taking a look!
