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.

I've just committed an enhancement to svn. With that you can pass
any argument to dig. Using tcp can now be switched on by adding -A '+tcp'
to check_dig.

Thanks for your proposal
