dns: create NRPT registry key if it doesn't exist

Windows 2019 Server by default does not have the key where local system
NRPT rules are stored. Tests have determined that NRPT is actually
working when rules are created under the key. So, instead of failing if
the key doesn't exist, we create it, and things will start working.
