Marking this as WIP again as I've noted that there are a few more things I want to change |

Using the CLR-DEV9 approach to resolve #4151
Depends on (and includes) #4301
This is a port of CLR-DEV9's DNS server, adapted to work with TAP and pcap (CLR-DEV9's was winsock only)
This PR adds an internal DNS server, that can be opted in by setting you DNS in the PS2 Network config to 192.0.2.1.
It features its own host list (DEV9Hosts.ini), allowing you to remap a url to a different IP address.
Note that while CLR-DEV9 used XML for its settings, this version uses PCSX2's iniInterface format for its host file.
If the internal DNS fails to find an url in its host list, is uses OS specific functions to look up the address.
The internal DNS will replace 127.0.0.1 with the PC's local IP (specifically the address assigned to the selected adapter), allowing PCSX2 to communicate with servers running on the same PC (i.e. developers of server revival projects may use this to allow developing on a single machine).
pcap may not fully work with 127.0.0.1 remapping, as it relies on your router to loop packets back to your PC.
Currently no UI is provided (as is the case with CLR-DEV9), and I'm not planning on providing one in this PR.
