Use round robins properly #204

At the moment, dns.mod only takes the first resolved address, and caches it, and ignores the others. It should probably cycle through them by replacing the serverlist with the lookup or something.

As a workaround, you could install/use unbound as your local/own dns server and use its config setting:

rrset-roundrobin: <yes or no>
              If yes, Unbound rotates RRSet order in response (the random number is taken from the query ID, for speed and thread safety).  Default is no.

See man unbound
