Bypass etc/hosts for virtual domains #820

Description

@wassim-ben-amor

What's the problem this feature will solve?

Using http-server -P parameter to use a local virtual domain, we still need to update /etc/hosts file to be able to access the local virtual domain using http-server.

Describe the solution you'd like

My idea is to find a way to use a new virtual domain without modifying /etc/hosts file. This can be achieved by using dns to modify the OS host file and use dns.lookup() to pull from the host file.
