This option allows for runtime switching to the system's standard
resolver.  This is mainly useful to work around possible bugs in the
optional resolver libraries (as of now ADNS).  Note that on Windows
there is no code to use systems's resolver and thus for full
functionality dirmngr must be build with a separate resolver.

This patch also does way with configure options to disable the use of
CERT and SRV records.

@item --standard-resolver
@opindex standard-resolver
This option forces the use of the system's standard DNS resolver code.
This is mainly used for debugging. Note that on Windows a standard
resolver is not used and all DNS access will return the error ``Not
Implemented'' if this function is used.
