>Description:
	
Add reasonable default for max-cache-entries, which stops the recursor from
using all system memory.

Also add pseudo-user creation via pkg-install, and use it by default.

These new options are hardcoded in the binary, which is the easiest way
due to how the configuration file is generated.
