Install connect-time DNS validation for Hermes-owned direct httpx clients so SSRF-sensitive fetch paths dial a vetted IP instead of re-resolving after preflight. This preserves Host/SNI semantics for direct HTTP(S) connections and keeps proxy routing as an explicit trusted egress boundary.
Wire the guarded clients into media cache downloads, vision downloads, Skills Hub direct/raw fetches, and platform attachment fetch paths that already perform SSRF preflight and redirect validation.
Fixes#8033
