Short description
This PR implements a refactoring of the Carbon handling in dnsdist. Each remote endpoint is now handled by its own thread, as to prevent a slow/unreachable server from impacting others.
It also implements an exponential back-off when a server cannot be reached properly, as to not overload a suffering endpoint.
Hopefully closes #10517 and #11216.
