[reSIProcate] DnsResults and numeric IP addresses

All;

I've been messing around with DnsResults (testDns) with a system that 
has no resolver.

I'm seeing some behaviour that makes me wonder:

When the hostname portion is a numeric address (be it v4 or v6) we 
return immediately (good) and set the available() state to Available.
I'm not so sure that this is the correct thing to do.  Wouldn't we want 
to set it to Finished in the case where there is only a single entry in 
the results list.
We aren't waiting on further results....

To see what I mean, compile testDns and run it thusly:

./testDns --log-type=cout --log-level=STACK sip:10.0.0.1:5060

Example output:

EBUG | 1094487950 | testDns | RESIP:DNS | 
../../resiprocate/DnsResult.cxx:116 | DnsResult::lookup 
sip:10.0.0.1:5060
DEBUG | 1094487950 | testDns | RESIP:DNS | 
../../resiprocate/DnsResult.cxx:166 | Numeric result so return 
immediately: [ V4 10.0.0.1:5060 UDP connectionId=0 ]
Waiting for 10.0.0.1 --> [[ V4 10.0.0.1:5060 UDP connectionId=0 
]][1]/(Available)
Waiting for 10.0.0.1 --> [[ V4 10.0.0.1:5060 UDP connectionId=0 
]][1]/(Available)
Waiting for 10.0.0.1 --> [[ V4 10.0.0.1:5060 UDP connectionId=0 
]][1]/(Available)
...

Those last line just keep spinning.

If I use 'localhost' as an example, the results are 'Finished'....

Thoughts?  Jason?
