[curl:bugs] #1431 removing names from DNS cache with CURLOPT_RESOLVE is not implemented

Curl_loadhostpairs is called in pretransfer, so doing CURLOPT_RESOLVE "-host:port" after transfer has no effect (the handle is reset before each transfer). What would be the best approach to fix it - call loadhostpairs in reset and cleanup? Doesn't sound right..

Removing names from DNS cache with CURLOPT_RESOLVE is not implemented (see TODO in Curl_loadhostpairs). With the fix 31860ab for https://sourceforge.net/p/curl/bugs/1327/ it means that constantly adding and deleting hostcache entries with CURLOPT_RESOLVE creates a memory leak, as such entries are never removed (nor by request nor automatically).
