Resolving plain PTR records is used beyond reverse DNS, most
prominently with DNS-SD (RFC6763). This adds dns.resolvePtr(),
and uses it (instead of dns.reverse()) in dns.resolve().

Previously, port could be any number in dns.lookupService. This change
throws a TypeError if port is outside the range of 0-65535. It also
coerces the port to a number.

This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for
better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly
changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made.
JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is
on the same line as the opening one.
Known issues:
* Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should
make another run for this.
* Some example functions break hightlighting due to various
combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving
the code style.

The docs were recently refactored, and some "above" and "below"
references were no longer accurate. This commit removes many
such references, and replaces others with links.

This simplifies the stability index to 4 levels:
0 - deprecated
1 - experimental / feature-flagged
2 - stable
3 - locked
Domains has been downgraded to deprecated, assert has been
downgraded to stable. Timers and Module remain locked. All
other APIs are now stable.

Documentation incorrectly used bracket notation for optional parameters.
This caused inconsistencies in usage because of examples like the
following:
fs.write(fd, data[, position[, encoding]], callback)
This simply fixes all uses of bracket notation in documentation.

Currently the address resolution family defaults to IPv4. Instead remove
the preference and instead resolve to a family suitable for the host.
Expose the getaddrinfo flags and allow them to be passed.

A follow-up commit will save the domain name on the request object but
we can't call that property 'domain' because that gets intercepted by
src/node.cc and lib/domain.js to implement the node.js feature of the
same name.
To avoid confusion, rename all variables called 'domain' to 'hostname'.
getServers returns an array of ips that are currently being used for
resolution
setServers takes an array of ips that are to be used for resolution,
this will throw if there's invalid input but preserve the original
configuration
