We now have the following, which will do DNS lookups, although it
doesnʼt let you specify the server.
network-lookup-address-info is a built-in function in `C source code'.
(network-lookup-address-info NAME &optional FAMILY)
Look up ip address info of NAME.
Optional parameter FAMILY controls whether to look up IPv4 or IPv6
addresses. The default of nil means both, symbol `ipv4' means IPv4
only, symbol `ipv6' means IPv6 only. Returns a list of addresses, or
nil if none were found. Each address is a vector of integers.
