When resolving an unqualified host name, the resolver tries the original name first before appending the domains from the search list. If a TLD with the same name exists, the query will succeed (but yield no A record) and the resolver will return HOST_NOT_FOUND without trying the search domains.

This patch changes the lookup order for unqualified host names (without dots) to try the search domains first and the original name last.
