    ntp: fix finalization for async resolver
    
    If an attempt to resolve addresses of an NTP server is made right before
    starting the termination sequence, the asynchronous resolver thread
    could read the server name when it was already freed.
    
    Leave unresolved sources allocated in NSR_Finalise() if the async
    resolver did not finish yet, at least for now. Waiting for the resolving
    result or cancelling the thread would complicate the code. The scheduler
    is not expected to be running at this point.

    doc: explain how to disable DNSSEC validation with sd-resolved in FAQ
    
    DNSSEC requires the system time to be synced in order to work,
    as the signature date and expiration need to be checked by
    resolvers. But it is possible that syncing the times requires
    doing DNS queries. Add a paragraph to the FAQ explaining how
    to break this cycle by asking nss-resolved to always avoid
    DNSSEC when chronyd tries to resolve hostnames.

    conf: do not check, write and delete PID file if set to '/'
    
    If the pid file path is specified as '/', skip handling it,
    as it is not only unnecessary but complicates managing the
    service. A systemd unit can manage the program without any
    need for this functionality, and it makes process tracking
    simpler and more robust.
    The implementation matches the bindcmdaddress directive.
