resolved: bus - follow CNAME chains when resolving addresses

It may be unexpected to find a CNAME record when doing a reverse lookup, as we
expect to find a PTR record directly. However, it is explicitly supported
according to <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2181#section-10.2>, and there
seems to be no benefit to not supporting it.
