statp->nscount contains the number of servers in the statp->nsaddr_list
array, which only contains IPv4 nameservers.

When resolv.conf only contains IPv6 nameservers, statp->nscount equals
to 0, which causes the existing code to add a 127.0.0.1 entry. Change
that by checking nservall, contains the number of IPv4 + IPv6 servers
instead.

The same way __libc_res_nsend exits almost immediately when
statp->nscount considering that no nameservers are available, while
IPv6 nameservers are actually available. Change that by checking
(statp->nscount + EXT(statp).nscount6) instead.

There is another use of statp->nscount in send_dg.  That should be
changed as well, otherwise it can result in a div by 0.

Good catch, I fixed that locally, it will be in the next version of the
patches.
