While working on the resolver code, I discovered some address copying
which appears to be unnecessary. The attached patch removes that.
The comments refer to timing data, but we currently do not have that.
Andreas, if I recall correctly, you wrote get_nsaddr. What do you think
about this change?
Thanks,
Florian
resolv: Do not copy IPv4 addresses to IPv6 address array
get_nsaddr already prefers IPv4 addresses if they are present
(af_family != 0). If we ensure that nssocks is initialized to -1
and sockets are closed even without an allocated server address,
there is no need to make these copies anymore.

* resolv/bits/types/res_state.h (struct __res_state): Rename
_u._ext.nscount to _u._ext.__glibc_unused_nscount.
* resolv/res_init.c (res_vinit): Adjust. Initialize nssocks
member.
* resolv/res_send.c (__libc_res_nsend): Do not copy IPv4
nameserver addresses.
* resolv/res-close.c (__res_iclose): Close sockets even if the
name server address has not been allocated.
* support/resolv_test.c (resolv_test_start): Do not clear
_res._u._ext.nscount because it is unused.
