ifup-post: always update nameserver & search entries in /etc/resolv.conf

  This is complete rework of how we generate the /etc/resolv.conf.

  Fixes:
   * always update 'nameserver' & 'search' entries when DNS* & DOMAIN
     options (respectively) were updated in ifcfg-* files
   * always update the order of 'nameserver' entries when the order of
     DNS* options was updated

  Enhancements:
   * added support for DNS3 option (equals to MAXNS value in GLIBC)
   * added logic to process duplicate DNS* options
   * added logic to process randomly omitted DNS* options (e.g. omitting
     DNS1 while specifying DNS2 and/or DNS3 will still work now)

  This work was based on these two RHEL-7.5 BZs:
