Make the dnspython resolver errors more consistent.

Share quite a bit more code between the ares and dnspython resolver.

docs/changes/1459.bugfix

-The c-ares resolver now raises exceptions much more consistently with
-the standard resolver. Types and errnos are more likely to match.
+The c-ares and DNSPython resolvers now raise exceptions much more
+consistently with the standard resolver. Types and errnos are more
+likely to match.
+
+In addition, several other small discrepancies were addressed,
+including handling of localhost and broadcast host names.
