95591c953c - update to 1.17.2:
Security:
  * When building c-ares with CMake, the RANDOM_FILE would not be set
    and therefore downgrade to the less secure random number generator
  * If ares_getaddrinfo() was terminated by an ares_destroy(),
    it would cause a crash
  * Crash in sortaddrinfo() if the list size equals 0 due to
    an unexpected DNS response
  * Expand number of escaped characters in DNS replies as per
    RFC1035 5.1 to prevent spoofing follow-up
    (bsc#1188881, CVE-2021-3672)
  * Perform validation on hostnames to prevent possible XSS
    due to applications not performing valiation themselves 
  Changes:
  * ares_malloc(0) is now defined behavior (returns NULL) rather than system-specific to catch edge cases 
  Bug fixes:
  * Building tests should not force building of static libraries except on Windows
  * Relative headers must use double quotes to prevent pulling in a system library
