Description
QDnsLookup doesn't seem to plumb to the DNS machinery on macOS/iOS, but is instead implemented via the unix APIs.
This means we're missing out on /etc/hosts lookup and Bonjour/mDNS, and don't reflect the complete DNS setup on Apple systems.
As an example,
❯ dscacheutil -q host -a name localhost. name: localhost ipv6_address: ::1name: localhost ip_address: 127.0.0.1
dscacheutil uses the system DNS machinery.
❯ nslookup localhost. Server: 1.1.1.1 Address: 1.1.1.1#53** server can't find localhost: NXDOMAIN
❯ dig localhost.; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> localhost. ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 45886 ;; flags: qr rd ra ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 1;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1232 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;localhost.

While nslookup (and dig) does not.
For Qt, the tst_QDnsLookup::lookupLocalhost() test fails in a similar way, unless the upstream DNS server happens to resolve "localhost."
