 See the discussion for the background:

 (around the paragraph beginning with "OK, although...")

 The idea is to create a new header file, say, protocol_constants.h, in
 lib/dns to centrailze the definition of (mainly numeric) protocol
 constants
 such as the max wire length of domain names.

 We should begin with the discussion about whether this is a good idea
 in the first place, and, if so, which constants should be defined
 in that file.
