  resolved fallback to TCP fails for truncated UDP replies

Bug description:
  [impact]

  for DNS UDP replies larger than 512 bytes, fallback to TCP is used.
  For example 'host toomany.ddstreet.org'.

  Due to a bug in resolved in refcounting DNS stream types, the refcount
  underflows for type 0 streams (which resolved uses to talk to upstream
  nameservers), resulting in resolved being unable to fallback to TCP to
  handle truncated UDP replies.

  [test case]

  ubuntu@sf247344-upstream:~$ dig +noanswer +noedns toomany.ddstreet.org
  ;; Truncated, retrying in TCP mode.

  ; <<>> DiG 9.11.3-1ubuntu1.9-Ubuntu <<>> +noanswer +noedns 
toomany.ddstreet.org
  ;; global options: +cmd

  [regression potential]

  very low, as this only properly sets the stream type in the DnsStream
  object; any regression would be a failure to be able to use TCP for
  DNS requests or replies.

  [other info]

  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/13838

  The commit adding stream types is not present in x/b, so this is
  needed only for disco and later.
