So far we didn't limit the number of jumps when decompressing a DNS
packet. This can lead to some extra work with specially crafted packets
that send a staircase of thousands of descending compression pointers,
which can then be amplified by referencing such staircase from thousands
of names.
Given that legitimate DNS packets need only a handful of jumps in the
compression chains, let's limit the number of jumps per a single name to
256 (the same limit as, for example, Unbound currently has).
