de-duplicate dn_expand, fix return value and signature, clean up

the duplicate code in dn_expand and its incorrect return values are
both results of the history of the code: the version in __dns.c was
originally written with no awareness of the legacy resolver API, and
was later copy-and-paste duplicated to provide the legacy API.

this commit is the first of a series that will restructure the
internal dns code to share as much code as possible with the legacy
resolver API functions.

I have also removed the loop detection logic, since the output buffer
length limit naturally prevents loops. in order to avoid long runtime
when encountering a loop if the caller provided a ridiculously long
buffer, the caller-provided length is clamped at the maximum dns name
length.
