Tor has configure libevent to attempt up to 3 times a DNS query for a
maximum of 5 seconds each. Once that 5 seconds has elapsed, it consider
the query "Timed Out" but tor only gets a timeout if all 3 attempts have
failed.
For example, using Unbound, it has a much higher threshold of timeout.
It is well defined in
https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/documentation/unbound/info-timeout/ and has
some complexity to it. But the gist is that if it times out, it will be
much more than 5 seconds.
And so the Tor DNS timeouts are more of a "UX issue" rather than a
"network issue". For this reason, we are removing this metric from the
overload general signal.

This also moves the warnings and add some theatrical effect around the
code so anyone modifying those list should notice the warnings signs and
read the comment accordingly.

Our code doesn't allow it and so this prevents an assert() crash if the
DirPort is for instance IPv6 only.

While trying to resolve our CI issues, the Windows build broke with an
unused function error:
src/test/test_switch_id.c:37:1: error: ‘unprivileged_port_range_start’
defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
We solve this by moving the `#if !defined(_WIN32)` test above the
`unprivileged_port_range_start()` function defintion such that it is
included in its body.
This is an unreviewed commit.
See: tor#40275
With this commit, we will only report a general overload state if we've
seen more than X% of DNS timeout errors over Y seconds. Previous
behavior was to report when a single timeout occured which is really too
small of a threshold.
The value X is a consensus parameters called
"overload_dns_timeout_scale_percent" which is a scaled percentage
(factor of 1000) so we can represent decimal points for X like 0.5% for
instance. Its default is 1000 which ends up being 1%.
The value Y is a consensus parameters called
"overload_dns_timeout_period_secs" which is the time period for which
will gather DNS errors and once over, we assess if that X% has been
reached ultimately triggering a general overload signal.
