Since we're using systemd and we have the `resolved` feature turned on,
why not just send an async dbus message to the resolved.service?

```
$ busctl introspect org.freedesktop.resolve1 /org/freedesktop/resolve1 | grep ResolveHostname
.ResolveHostname                    method    isit          a(iiay)st                                -
```
