The host's vmnet DHCP server relays the Mac's own resolver search
domains (e.g. stale *.cmu.edu entries) into the Tart Linux VM. Ubuntu
appends them to public names like github.com, and if any points at an
unreachable resolver, every lookup — including `git pull` — stalls for
ten seconds. Document a netplan drop-in that disables use of those
domains, complementing the existing /etc/hosts local-hostname fix.
