Research direction

Start by locating the pack_detection_1-unexpected-talkers-linux query and inspect how systemd-resolved connections are classified. Update the unexpected-talkers logic so DNS over TLS connections using remote port 853 are excluded, then verify that the provided systemd-resolved example is no longer reported.
