resolv.h defines the __RES version macro to indicate the API level
provided, and its meaning is consistent across different libcs. __RES
>= 19991006 indicates support for the res_n* functions. musl's
resolver is stateless and does not have them, and defines __RES
appropriately to indicate that it doesn't.
