PATCH 1/1 add mdnsresponder package

mDNSResponder is a component of Bonjour, Apple's initiative for zero-configuration networking. More information is available here:

http://developer.apple.com/networking/bonjour/index.html

This appears to be lighter-weight than avahi and has basically no dependencies other than uclibc itself. The avahi package needed some patches to even compile then crashed when I tried to run it. I'd prefer to use something smaller anyhow, and this appears to fit the bill quite well...

The patch below adds support to buildroot for mdnsresponder, including the config file template and initialization script.
