Summary: check_dns: added -o option to sort returned addresses
Initial Comment:
On round-robin setups, DNS queries will return addresses on a different order on each request. This renders the -a option useless. The attached patch will add option -o to sort the returned addresses, making -a option useful again.

Hi Thiago,
thanks for your patch, I've just applied another patch from the tracker to
svn that does nearly the same thing. With the other one -o isn't needed at
all since addresses can be sorted any time.
