         quickly, but the other could always fail or timeout (when we're
         talking to a pool of DNS servers that can only successfully resolve
         IPv4 address, for example).

         It's also possible that the other request could always just take
         longer because it needs more time or only the second DNS server can
         fulfill it successfully.  But, to align with the philosophy of Happy
         Eyeballs, we don't want to wait _too_ long or users will think
         requests are slow when IPv6 lookups don't actually work (but IPv4 ones
         do).

         So, now that we have a usable answer (some IPv4 addresses, some IPv6
         addresses, or "no such domain"), we start a timeout for the remaining
         pending responses.  Even though it is typical that this resolved
         request came back quickly, that needn't be the case.  It might be that
         this completing request didn't get a result from the first DNS server
         or even the first round of the whole DNS server pool.  So it could
         already be quite some time after we issued the DNS queries in the
         first place.  Without modifying c-ares, we can't know exactly where in
         its retry cycle we are.  We could guess based on how much time has
         gone by, but it doesn't really matter.  Happy Eyeballs tells us that,
         given usable information in hand, we simply don't want to wait "too
         much longer" after we get a result.

         We simply wait an additional amount of time equal to the default
         c-ares query timeout.  That is enough time for a typical parallel
         response to arrive without being "too long".  Even on a network
         where one of the two types of queries is failing or timing out
         constantly, this will usually mean we wait a total of the default
         c-ares timeout (5 seconds) plus the round trip time for the successful
         request, which seems bearable.  The downside is that c-ares might race
         with us to issue one more retry just before we give up, but it seems
         better to "waste" that request instead of trying to guess the perfect
         timeout to prevent it.  After all, we don't even know where in the
         c-ares retry cycle each request is.
