 Update deps and fix getaddrinfo test for canary 
Apparently the return of getaddrinfo for the canary domain has
changed in the latest versions of either glibc or the corresponding
crate.

The error returned is Eai::NoData rather than Eai::NoName.

Malcontent NSS Module

Disclaimer: this is a proof-of-concept and a work in progress. As such, the code is still rather ugly, especially when handling C structures.

This is a proof of concept for a NSS module allowing to perform parental controls when querying the system interfaces for hostname resolution (DNS). It is designed to be integrated with Malcontent.

When the code will be ready, a system administrator would install the module after compiling it through CMake. Then they would add it to the hosts entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf. For instance:

hosts: files myhostname malcontent resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns

Note how malcontent precedes both systemd's resolve and the libc dns modules.

Parental control configuration would happen through the Malcontent client or GUI.
