Most DNS servers are actually well able to send records greater than
512 bytes over UDP. This is part of the EDNS0 DNS extension. I think
it's worth discussing to implement EDNS0 in the musl resolver.
Codewise you just have to set the UDP receive buffer to the desired
size and include an OPT RR in every query indicating the supported max
UDP size.
