Be more strict when encountering DNSSEC validation failures - fail on
the first failure. This will break domains that have DNSSEC signing
keys with duplicate key ids, but this is something that's much easier
to fix on the authoritative side, so we are just going to be strict
on the resolver side where it is causing performance problems.

Add normal and slow task queues
Split the task manager queues into normal and slow task queues, so we
can move the tasks that blocks processing for a long time (like DNSSEC
validation) into the slow queue which doesn't block fast
operations (like responding from the cache). This mitigates the whole
class of KeyTrap-like issues.

Don't iterate from start every time we select new signing key

When parsing messages use a hashtable instead of a linear search to reduce
the amount of work done in findname when there's more than one name in
the section.
There are two hashtables:
1) hashtable for owner names - that's constructed for each section when we
hit the second name in the section and destroyed right after parsing
that section;
2) per-name hashtable - for each name in the section, we construct a new
hashtable for that name if there are more than one rdataset for that
particular name.

Backport isc_ht API changes from BIND 9.18

hashtables.

then have different case than the signed records and message parser have
to cope with that and treat everything as the same owner.
