test: bound watcher live DNS and serialise packages after rebase
check / check (push) Successful in 1m37s

Rebasing this branch onto next surfaced two failures that the branch
did not have in isolation. Both come from the change this PR makes:
the watcher package now queries live DNS, and it is the second package
to do so.

Burst fan-out in the watcher package. All 13 watcher tests are
parallel and each runs a full iterative resolution, so they hit the
same root servers in the same instant and get rate-limited. This is
exactly the pathology internal/resolver/livedns_test.go was written to
prevent (9cb2c2b); that gate is package-scoped and cannot reach into
this package's test binary, so liveWatcherGate is its counterpart
here, acquired in newTestWatcher and released when the test ends.

Cross-package oversubscription. Go runs package binaries in parallel,
so with both live-DNS packages in flight their gates sum rather than
hold. The excess is rate-limited and the resolver's 8s per-attempt
deadlines expire, failing ResolveIPAddresses tests this branch never
touched. script/test now passes -p 1 so each gate is authoritative
while its package runs. Serialising is also net faster here, because
the retries it removes cost more than the lost parallelism: resolver
16-22s (was 30-36s under contention), watcher 12-13s (was 27-37s),
whole suite 39-46s against the 60s cap and the 90s -timeout backstop.

TestQueryNameserverIP_UnreachableServer is dropped rather than fixed.
It asserted that a query to an RFC 5737 documentation address comes
back non-OK with no records, which does not hold in the build
environment: that network transparently intercepts all UDP/53 traffic
regardless of destination and answers it locally, so the query returns
StatusOK with 9 real records for example.com. Verified directly with
dig @192.0.2.1 inside the build network. The mock DNSClient that used
to force this classification is what this PR removes, and a live
substitute would only be testing the sandbox's network behaviour, so
the coverage gap is recorded in a comment where the test was.

Verified: three consecutive `docker build .` runs green, after three
consecutive failures without these changes.

# -timeout 90s is a deliberate backstop above the 60s hard cap on
# suite duration. Do not lower it.
#
# -p 1 runs one test package at a time, and is load-bearing. Live DNS
# is a resource outside the process: the concurrency gates that keep
# this suite from bursting at the root servers
# (internal/resolver/livedns_test.go, internal/watcher/watcher_test.go)
# are package-scoped, so each one only bounds its own test binary. Go
# runs package binaries in parallel by default, so with both live-DNS
# packages in flight at once their gates sum instead of holding, the
# root and TLD servers rate-limit the excess, and the resolver
# package's per-attempt deadlines expire. Serialising packages is what
# makes each gate authoritative while its package runs.
