Title: Update c-ares to version 1.9.0

Based on Ben's work for 1.8.0 this updates the bundled c-ares to version 1.9.0.

My Windows VM was a bit quirky at times, so if anyone else could run the gethostbyname tests would be great. Anyhow, the gethostbyname benchmark gives reasonable results now.

Also, I wasn't sure if this floating chunk of code needs to be included: https://github.com/joyent/libuv/blob/master/src/ares/ares_init.c#L701 if it is, then I'll apply it.

Sorry I couldn't get this done before the Node 0.8 release :-(
