 * Look up a host by name. Mostly equivalent to getaddrinfo(host, NULL, ...) of

 * @param aAddressFamily[in] May be AF_INET, AF_INET6, or AF_UNSPEC.
 * @param aFlags[in] May be either PR_AI_ADDRCONFIG or
 *     PR_AI_ADDRCONFIG | PR_AI_NOCANONNAME. Include PR_AI_NOCANONNAME to
 *     suppress the determination of the canonical name corresponding to
 *     hostname (PR_AI_NOCANONNAME will be ignored if the TTL is retrieved).
 * @param aAddrInfo[out] Will point to the results of the host lookup, or be
 *     null if the lookup failed.
 * @param aGetTtl[in] If true, and TTL_AVAILABLE is truthy, the TTL will be
 *     retrieved if DNS provides the answers..
