Evan Hunt afb424c9b6 simplify dns_name_fromtext() interface ...

previously, dns_name_fromtext() took both a target name and an
optional target buffer parameter, which could override the name's
dedicated buffer. this interface is unnecessarily complex.

we now have two functions, dns_name_fromtext() to convert text
into a dns_name that has a dedicated buffer, and dns_name_wirefromtext()
to convert text into uncompressed DNS wire format and append it to a
target buffer.

in cases where it really is necessary to have both, we can use
dns_name_fromtext() to load the dns_name, then dns_name_towire()
to append the wire format to the target buffer.
