The named_g_defaultdnstap was never used as the dnstap requires

Portion of the digdelv test are skipped on IPv6 due to extra quotes
around $TESTSOCK6: "I:digdelv:IPv6 unavailable; skipping".

Regressed with 351efd8812.

EDNS mechanisms only apply to DNS over UDP. Thus, errors encountered
while sending DNS queries over TCP must not influence EDNS timeout
statistics.
(cherry picked from commit fce3c93ea2)
If a TCP connection fails while attempting to send a query to a server,
the fetch context will be restarted without marking the target server as
a bad one. If this happens for a server which:
- was already marked with the DNS_FETCHOPT_EDNS512 flag,
- responds to EDNS queries with the UDP payload size set to 512 bytes,
- does not send response packets larger than 512 bytes,
and the response for the query being sent is larger than 512 byes, then
named will pointlessly alternate between sending UDP queries with EDNS
UDP payload size set to 512 bytes (which are responded to with truncated
answers) and TCP connections until the fetch context retry limit is
reached. Prevent such query loops by marking the server as bad for a
given fetch context if the advertised EDNS UDP payload size for that
server gets reduced to 512 bytes and it is impossible to reach it using
TCP.

I was truncating zone files for experimental purposes when I found
that `named-compilezone | head` got stuck. The full command line that
exhibited the problem was:
dig axfr dotat.at |
named-compilezone -o /dev/stdout dotat.at /dev/stdin |
head
This requires a large enough zone to exhibit the problem, more than
about 70000 bytes of plain text output from named-compilezone.
I was running the command on Debian Stretch amd64.
This was puzzling since it looked like something was suppressing the
SIGPIPE. I used `strace` to examine what was happening at the hang.
The program was just calling write() a lot to print the zone file, and
the last write() hanged until I sent it a SIGINT.
During some discussion with friends, Ian Jackson guessed that opening
/dev/stdout O_RDRW might be the problem, and after some tests we found
that this does in fact suppress SIGPIPE.
Since `named-compilezone` only needs to write to its output file, the
fix is to omit the stdio "+" update flag.

It was found that NSEC Aggressive Caching has a significant performance impact
on BIND 9 when used as recursor. This commit disables the synth-from-dnssec
configuration option by default to provide immediate remedy for people running
BIND 9.12+. The NSEC Aggressive Cache will be enabled again after a proper fix
will be prepared.

Ensure BIND can be tested on CentOS 8 in GitLab CI to more quickly catch

This message started appearing with cppcheck 1.89 [1], but it will be
gone in the next release [2], so just suppress it for the time being.

It seems that cppcheck no longer treats at least some REQUIRE()
assertion failures as fatal, so add extra assertion macro definitions to
lib/isc/include/isc/util.h that are only used when the CPPCHECK
preprocessor macro is defined; these definitions make cppcheck 1.89
behave as expected.
There is an important requirement for these custom definitions to work:
cppcheck must properly treat abort() as a function which does not
return. In order for that to happen, the __GNUC__ macro must be set to
a high enough number (because system include directories are used and
system headers compile attributes away if __GNUC__ is not high enough).
__GNUC__ is thus set to the major version number of the GCC compiler
used, which is what that latter does itself during compilation.
