What does this PR do?

Adding can_connect/cant_connect metrics to dns_check.

Motivation

Unlike other simple checks (i.e. http_check) dns_check only has service_check but no metrics. Without those metrics creating monitors for dns checks is way harder and way more limited.
There also should be an open FR (official? internal?) for this.

Review checklist (to be filled by reviewers)

  • If you need to backport this PR to another branch, you can add the backport/<branch-name> label to the PR and it will automatically open a backport PR once this one is merged
