In r289315, I added new fields to res_state. This broke binary
backward compatibility. It also broke some ports (and possibly
other code) by requiring the definition of time_t and struct timespec.
Fix these problems by moving the new fields into __res_state_ext.

On each resolver query, use stat(2) to see if the modification time
of /etc/resolv.conf has changed. If so, reload the file and reinitialize
the resolver library. However, only call stat(2) if at least two seconds
have passed since the last call to stat(2), since calling it on every
query could kill performance.
This new behavior is enabled by default. Add a "reload-period" option
to disable it or change the period of the test.
Document this behavior and option in resolv.conf(5).
Polish the man page just enough to appease igor.
