Tell postfix to use nsswitch if the DNS doesn't work or the needed record is missing

Given the size of main.cf and the number of parameters already supported, pulling out smtp_host_lookup a parameter with default value "dns, native" seems a better idea. Wanting to identify mail hosts via methods besides DNS, e.g. /etc/hosts entries, can come up when you want to do mail delivery from AWS instances only over their private IP addresses.
