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.
