Enable libresolv/libnsl stubs by default for uclibc 0.9.31

Uclibc-0.9.31 has the (new) option to disable libresolv & libnsl stubs.
However some packages try to link explicitly to them (example: pppoatm plugin from pppd).
Since the 4.3BSD standard states to explicitly link to libresolv for res_* functions it'll be difficult to fix packages upstream with respect to this.
The best solution would be to enable the stubs, expert users can disable them in their custom uclibc config to shave a few bytes from their target system if they don't need them.
