FYI:

Goal: Implement DoH in miekg/dns (Go DNS library)
Try to mimic DNS-over-TLS, which was relatively painless to incorperate.

I attempted to make DNS over HTTPS a first class citizen, i.e. create a
DNS connection and have 1 configuration item set to "https" and then have DoH
"just work".

This approach worked for DNS-over-TLS (but side steps some advanaced features).

This ran into a few snags which makes this approach infeasible meaning I
can't easily incorperate it without major rewrites of the library:

* http/2 (in Go) has it's own socket pipelining so I can't give it a socket
  and make it run with it. This breaks an assumption in this library.

* The Go http client setup has a function called client.Do which sends
  a reply and waits for a reponse, ala Exchange() in this library. But
  this library uses "WriteMsg" and "ReadMsg" as two calls; which can't be
  implemented as such for DoH.

I ended up with some (trivial) helper functions that parse from and
to the http/2 request world, but nothing more tangible. See
https://github.com/miekg/dns/pull/647 .
