Denton Gentry 93c2882a2f wgengine: flush DNS cache after major link change.
Windows has a public dns.Flush used in router_windows.go.
However that won't work for platforms like Linux, where
we need a different flush mechanism for resolved versus
other implementations.

We're instead adding a FlushCaches method to the dns Manager,
which can be made to work on all platforms as needed.

Fixes https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues/2132
