[Bug 204927] libc resolver not stripping trailing dot for lookup in /etc/hosts

I'm not in a position to test on a current version.

It should be easy to test, though. See what you have in /etc/hosts. All you
need is a FQDN with no trailing dot. Try looking up (e.g. via showip.c) that
exact FQDN with and without a trailing dot. Compare the results to what the
hostname(7) manpage says, which is still "If the input name ends with a
trailing dot, the trailing dot is removed, and the remaining name is looked up
with no further processing." In other words, the results should be the same.
