[patch] resolver.3: correct arguments to res_ninit(res_state statep)

[patch] resolver.3: correct arguments to res_ninit(res_state statep)

[Ray Bellis]

The man page for res_ninit() incorrectly says that it takes no
parameters, when in fact (and indeed according to the same page further
down) it has to take a res_state parameter.
