Handle flakiness with geojson java.net.UnknownHostException errors (#24523)

* Handle flakiness with geojson java.net.UnknownHostException errors

In CI seems like we are getting errant errors:

```clojure
geojson.clj:62
It validates URLs and files appropriately
http://0xc0000200
expected: (valid? geojson)
  actual: #error {
 :cause "Invalid IP address literal: 0xc0000200"
 :via
 [{:type clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo
   :message "Invalid GeoJSON file location: must either start with http:// or https:// or be a relative path to a file on the classpath. URLs referring to hosts that supply internal hosting metadata are prohibited."
   :data {:status-code 400, :url "http://0xc0000200"}
   :at [metabase.api.geojson$valid_url_QMARK_ invokeStatic "geojson.clj" 62]}
  {:type java.net.UnknownHostException
   :message "0xc0000200"
   :at [java.net.InetAddress getAllByName "InetAddress.java" 1340]}
  {:type java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
   :message "Invalid IP address literal: 0xc0000200"
   :at [sun.net.util.IPAddressUtil validateNumericFormatV4 "IPAddressUtil.java" 150]}]
```

Not clear if this change has a hope of fixing it: if it doesn't resolve
once its possible it is cached somewhere in the network stack, or it
won't resolve if you ask again.

But gonna give it a shot.

Set the property `"networkaddress.cache.negative.ttl"` to `"0"`

> networkaddress.cache.negative.ttl (default: 10)
>    Indicates the caching policy for un-successful name lookups from the name service. The value is specified as an integer to indicate the number of seconds to cache the failure for un-successful lookups.

>    A value of 0 indicates "never cache". A value of -1 indicates "cache forever".

From
https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.base/java/net/InetAddress.html
in the hopes that we can try multiple times. Restores the original value
after the test completes so we don't inadvertently change behavior
elsewhere.

If we get an error of java.net.UnknownHostException we try again if we
have attempts remaining. If we get a boolean it means the ip resolution
worked so we can rely on the response (checking if it resolves locally
or not)
