feat: introduce DNS intercept mode infrastructure

Add --intercept-mode flag (dns/hard/off) with configuration support,
recovery bypass for captive portals, probe-based interception
verification, VPN DNS coexistence in the proxy layer, and IPv6
loopback listener guard.

Remove standalone mDNSResponder hack files — the port 53 binding
logic is now handled within the intercept mode infrastructure.

Squashed from intercept mode development on v1.0 branch (#497).
