Fix DNS resolution in WSL2

Permanent WSL DNS Fix (WSL 2.2.1+)

If you're encountering ping github.com failing inside WSL with a Temporary failure in name resolution, you're not alone — this has been a long-standing issue, especially when using VPNs or corporate networks.

This issue is now fixed robustly with DNS tunneling, which preserves dynamic DNS behavior and avoids limitations like WSL’s former hard cap of 3 DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf.

DNS tunneling is enabled by default in WSL version 2.2.1 and later, meaning that if you're still seeing DNS resolution issues, the first and most effective fix is simply to upgrade WSL. Upgrading WSL updates the WSL platform itself, but does not affect your installed Linux distributions, apps, or files.

[Moved to https://github.com/thgreasi/debounce-with-result.js] An improved version of debounce that returns a Promise and can handle return values. Returns a single Promise for each separate group of debounced invocations.
function debounceWithResult (func, wait, immediate) {
function newDeferred () {
var deferred = {};
deferred.promise = new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
deferred.resolve = resolve;
deferred.reject = reject;
});
return deferred;
}
