[ncat][RFC] Ability to control hostname resolution for proxy destinations

[nnposter <nnposter () users sourceforge net>]

In connect mode, currently all proxy destinations are directly passed 
onto the remote proxy server, without trying to resolve them locally. 
This behavior has raised some concerns.

I am proposing a new ncat option that provides control over whether 
these hostnames are resolved by the remote proxy server or locally, by 
Ncat itself.

Usage:

ncat   ...   --proxy-dns local | remote | both | none

Please review the proposal and comment.

Cheers,
nnposter
