- ares_dns.h, missing_header.patch: re-add missing header in last release

- Version update to 1.17.0
  Security:
  * avoid read-heap-buffer-overflow in ares_parse_soa_reply found during
    fuzzing
  * Avoid theoretical buffer overflow in RC4 loop comparison
  * Empty hquery->name could lead to invalid memory access
  * ares_parse_{a,aaaa}_reply() could return a larger *naddrttls than was
    passed in (bsc#1178882, CVE-2020-8277)
  Changes:
  * Update help information for adig, acountry, and ahost
  * Test Suite now uses dynamic system-assigned ports rather than hardcoded
    ports to prevent failures in containers
  * Detect remote DNS server does not support EDNS using rules from RFC 6891
  * Source tree has been reorganized to use a more modern layout
  * Allow parsing of CAA Resource Record
  Bug fixes:
  * readaddrinfo bad sizeof()
  * Test cases should honor HAVE_WRITEV flag, not depend on WIN32
  * FQDN with trailing period should be queried first
  * ares_getaddrinfo() was returning members of the struct as garbage values if
    unset, and was not honoring ai_socktype and ai_protocol hints.
  * ares_gethostbyname() with AF_UNSPEC and an ip address would fail
  * Properly document ares_set_local_ip4() uses host byte order
