The nss_resolve module is just a wrapper around resolved's bus
API. And the bus API uses resolved's own DNS resolution code. And
resolved is smart enough to automatically become a *consumer* of
/etc/nsswitch.conf (instead of a *manager* of it) if it is a regular
file instead of a symlink to resolved's own files in /run.

Yeah, that's the idea. resolve takes control if resolved runs, and
otherwise we fall back to classic nss-dns.
