Description

I followed the wiki DoT with Dnsmasq and Stubby, and redirect all DNS traffic to Dnsmasq so that all DNS be encrypted.
I notice the dnsmasq init much early than stubby, why dnsmasq and stubby don't start at the same time.
This can produce init problems if a init service need to do a DNS query and stubby didn't start yet even if dnsmasq already started.

Research direction

Start with the “DoT with Dnsmasq and Stubby” wiki guidance and the dnsmasq and stubby init services. Reproduce boot-time DNS queries and compare when each service becomes available; done means the startup ordering concern is confirmed and the expected behavior is documented or addressed.
