health/dns: reduce severity of DNS unavailable warning (#13152)

`DNS unavailable` was marked as a high severity warning. On Android (and other platforms), these trigger a system notification. Here we reduce the severity level to medium. A medium severity warning will still display the warning icon on platforms with a tray icon because of the `ImpactsConnectivity=true` flag being set here, but it won't show a notification anymore. If people enter an area with bad cellular reception, they're bound to receive so many of these notifications and we need to reduce notification fatigue.
