#17 more diagnostic output for failures in verify.t

People sometimes run into problems with testing the verify.t script.

Two common occurrences:

1. Their DNS setup is messed up, causing many of the verify.t tests to fail for lack of DNS server.

2. Their OpenSSL setup is somehow messed up, causing many of the verify.t tests fail for getting the wrong OpenSSL results.

So...

it would be nice to modify the testing in such a way that it can verify that DNS and OpenSSL is working before doing all the tests.

And then report DNS and OpenSSL problems as stand-alone tests.

    verify.t has been rewritten to use a "fake" DNS implementation, so that DNS-setup problems will not cause this test to fail.

    (Other tests will still fail, but not this one.)
