Upsteam support for strict group strategy and parallel_best addresses

Howdy, love blocky. Would be great if you could setup up upstream groups to follow a strict order and inside the group the addressed were selected using parallel_best. This would allow you to support multiple DoH/DoT servers and only fallback to UDP if DoH/DoT failed. Maybe I am just over complicating it and DoH/DoT do not fail enough to justify a change like this.

strategy: strict
