If "edns-udp-size" is set in a "server" block matching the queried
server, it is accounted for in the process of determining the advertised
UDP buffer size, but its value may still be overridden before the query
is sent. This behavior contradicts the ARM which claims that when set,
the server-specific "edns-udp-size" value is used for all EDNS queries
sent to a given server.
Furthermore, calling dns_peer_getudpsize() with the "udpsize" variable
as an argument makes the code hard to follow as that call may either
update the value of "udpsize" or leave it untouched.
Ensure the code matches the documentation by moving the
dns_peer_getudpsize() call below all other blocks of code potentially
affecting the advertised UDP buffer size, which is where it was located
when server-specific "edns-udp-size" support was first implemented [1].
Improve code readability by calling dns_peer_getudpsize() with a helper
variable instead of "udpsize".

The ARM and the manpages have been converted into Sphinx documentation
format.
Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its
strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of
reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.
