[JDK-8257080] Java does not try all DNS results when opening a socket

[Benjamin Marwell]

Is there more than just one? The built-in will provide support
for javax.naming.spi.LdapDnsProvider from java 12 onwards.
But I was not aware of any custom implementations I could use as a drop-in
replacement with Apache Shiro.

The Java 8 implementation will just use the socket’s/InetAdress’s DNS
resolution algo, which is just getAddresses()[0].
