man: change recommended order of NSS modules in /etc/nsswitch.conf
So far we recommended placing "nss-mymachines" after "nss-resolve" in the order
of preference in /etc/nsswitch.conf. This change reverse this order.
Rationale: single-label names are resolved via LLMNR by resolved, which has to
time out if no peer by that name exists. By placing "nss-mymachines" first
(which always responds immediately) we avoid running into this timeout for most
containers. Both modules should return the same data if LLMNR is used by the
container anyway.
While we are at it, improve the man pages of the three NSS modules in other
ways a bit.
