knot-resolver: enable dnstap module build by default
'dnstap' module will be built but not loaded by default at runtime (configuration must be provided for it to be loaded). It is still possible to disable dnstap build manually using menuconfig. "The dnstap module supports logging DNS requests and responses to a unix socket in dnstap format using fstrm framing library. This logging is useful if you need effectively log all DNS traffic."[^1] Adds dependency on 'protobuf', 'protobuf-c', 'libfstrm'. Listed packages are available from OpenWrt packages, have uncomplicated manifests and while 'protobuf-c' doesn't have a maintainer since spring 2020, all the packages (including 'protobuf-c') seem to be maintained - the last updates of all of them in autumn 2021. As stated by Vladimír Čunát from Knot Resolver team they build dnstap while packaging for majority of standard Linux distributions. Therefore this change brings us closer to expected default.
