feat: clearly indicate which resolver we're using (#885)

See what we documented at https://github.com/ooni/spec/pull/257

Reference issue: https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2238

While there, bump webconnectivity@v0.5 version because this change
has an impact onto the generated data format.

The drop in coverage is unavoidable because we've written some
tests for `measurex` to ensure we deal with DNS resolvers and transport
names correctly depending on the splitting policy we use.

(However, `measurex` is only used for the `tor` experiment and, per
the step-by-step design document, new experiments should use
`measurexlite` instead, so this is hopefully fine(TM).)

While there, fix a broken integration test that does not run in `-short` mode.
