Summary: check_dig should support TCP

Initial Comment:
I want to check DNS services for both UDP and TCP connectivity. dig has the +tcp parameter that enables TCP querying insted of UDP but it is not accessible because check_dig doesn't support it.

While enabling this through check_dig would be a nice thing, maybe a better idea would be to pass parameters starting with "+" to dig directly, thus making it a little more transparent, giving it the ability to support future needed features.
