DefaultResolver.LookupIP returns {nil}, nil when host is "". This is because r.internetAddrList returns the inetaddr(IPAddr{}):
https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/master:src/net/ipsock.go;l=284

It seems that return inetaddr(IPAddr{}) is expected. But I think the return of Resolver.LookupIP should be {}, nil, not {nil}, nil. Or return an error like net.LookupIP does.

i send a wip cl and want help. I'm wondering if it's more appropriate to return an error, or just return an empty slice.

please feel free to review

Looking up an empty host name should probably return some sort of error.
