Add the ability to do the below types of DNS lookups.

• CNAME
• Reverse lookups

Add an option to output JSON to standard output.

The --output option should only allow the parameters "text", "csv", and "json".

Need to fix sorted output of bin/gsd. Also need to add a test for this. :-)

The default behavior should be to ignore duplicate hostnames and IP addresses. There should be a command line option to disable this behavior.
