saltstack/salt — Issue #783: salt-minion DNS re-resolution implementation

Currently salt-minion daemon resolves master's IP address (if using dns to connect to master) only at its startup. Upon a connection issue, a salt-minion daemon will not do a dns re-resolution again, which can lead to a situation described in the following mailing list post: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/salt-users/QNCpXiS6GaM

Please add a dns re-resolution to the recovery mechanism.

Thanks,
