More explicit "intro to networking" content #238

Description

@illicitonion

We should probably introduce:

  • DNS
  • IP addresses
  • TCP / UDP, trade-offs between, shape of a TCP handshake
  • HTTP
  • The idea these packets are encapsulated in each other
  • Why DNS is (typically) over UDP
  • Importance/Difficulties in reducing round-trips (e.g. a simplified evolution from HTTP1-over-TCP to QUIC)

In particular, we should do this before we have people think about load balanceres.
