      The host name can be an IP literal, as with InetAddress.getAllByName(String)

      Implementations are encouraged to implement their own caching policies, as there is no guarantee that the caller will implement a cache.

      Parameters:
      host - the host
      Returns:
      a list of IP addresses for the requested host
      Throws:
      UnknownHostException - if no IP addresses for the host could be found
