Workaround for unresponsive dashboard on WAN problems.

[chrcoluk]

I wont take credit for this as I found it on an old post, but it does work reasonably well.

I suggest the developers make this the default /etc/resolv.conf template.

Simple add two lines to the bottom of resolv.conf as follows.

'options timeout:1
options retries:1'

I assume however this only is effective if use of the file is configured in general settings, and in addition it wont affect queries coming from LAN going to unbound (which is fine, as this is designed to only affect pfSense locally to mitigate dashboard issues).

This basically should set a 1 sec timeout for queries done locally by pfSense with only 1 retry.

If WAN is down, for me this changes from a almost perpetual wait to about 3-5 seconds for the dashboard to load.
