Code Review: Clean

Timeout reduced from 5s to 2s — sensible for iterative resolution
Root server fan-out properly limited to 3 randomly-selected servers via randomRootServers(), replacing the previous static rootServerList()[:3] slice
math/rand.Shuffle is appropriate here (no crypto requirement)
All existing tests pass, no behavioral regressions
Clean diff, no unnecessary changes
