    Resolve some crashes/exceptions observed today when used by ircd.js

    ircd.js kept crashing on startup on vert with these errors, right after it logged:
    Accepting new connection on port 6667
    0832 Accepted new connection: 71.95.196.36 port 55646
    [UNREG] Resolving IP: 71.95.196.36

    Log Message:
    Don't return 0 when unable to parse integers.

    0 is a valid value, results are undefined.

    Validate the size of the message at each step and throw an error if
    something goes wrong.

    Should fix the issue where an IRC spammers DNS was detected as local,
    so the anti-spammer bot banned my server address intead of the
    spammers address.

    Log Message:
    dns.js: return the resolved addresses in synchronous mode

    resolve(), resolveIPv4() and resolveIPv6() called resolveProcess() without returning its value, so in synchronous mode they evaluated to undefined
    instead of the addresses, contradicting the usage example at the top of
    the file. resolveTypeClass(), reverse() and resolveMX() already return
    theirs.

    That example also used toSource(), which SpiderMonkey 128 does not have.
