CaptivePortal.ino example did randomly crash for me ... so I start investigate ;-)

I found with wireshark a possibility to trigger the crash on demand is:
nslookup 3.1o1osr0092ons87rp375p1pq8q066o8p56or1sqsps6rs17r4384q9748qr1r52.699p1r741q737393648s29917o45p16q50rn517rnsp73pp68p1q259s92693qp.s607408539s0p06p7559os0899866344r7qq7rpns960o9576q65.r5n94r5so9784pq1.i.03.s.sophosxl.net
The problem was that QNameLength is a signed byte and therefore its not possible to count up to 255. Additionally we need 256 bytes for the QName string to accommodate for the zero termination.
* Retrieve some code from what has been done on the ESP8266. Clarify a bit the signification of several bytes in the response.
* Add the type and class as members of the DNS class for an eventual future use.
* Clarify the sense of a magic number present in DNS server.
* A bit of aesthetics for the DNS server.
* Add a structure for the DNS question, use it DNS server to store the question data and to create the DNS answer from scratch.
