Previously, there was no limit to the number of concurrently served
queries over one pipelined TCP connection; an unlimited number of
queries sent over a single TCP connection could have potentially
exhausted the server's resources.
Add a shell function which is used in the "tcp" system test, but has
been accidentally omitted from !2425. Make sure the function does not
change the value of "ret" itself, so that the caller can decide what to
do with the function's return value.

Test jitter distribution in NSEC3 dynamic zone and for a zone that has old
signatures. In both cases the generated signatures should be spread nicely.

This variable will report the maximum number of simultaneous tcp clients
that BIND has served while running.
It can be verified by running rndc status, then inspect "tcp high-water:
count", or by generating statistics file, rndc stats, then inspect the
line with "TCP connection high-water" text.
The tcp-highwater variable is atomically updated based on an existing
tcp-quota system handled in ns/client.c.

EDNS mechanisms only apply to DNS over UDP. Thus, errors encountered
while sending DNS queries over TCP must not influence EDNS timeout
statistics.

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.

'isc_commandline_index' is a global variable so it can theoretically
change result between if expressions. Save 'argv[isc_commandline_index]'
to local variable 'arg1' and use 'arg1 == NULL' in if expressions
instead of 'argc < isc_commandline_index + 1'. This allows clang
to correctly determine what code is reachable.

The libidn2 library on Ubuntu Bionic is broken and idn2_to_unicode_8zlz() does't
fail when it should. This commit ensures that we don't run the system test for
valid A-label in locale that cannot display with the buggy libidn2 as it would
break the tests.

It is possible dig used ACE encoded name in locale, which does not

ACE name on output.

Make sure the CYGWIN environment variable is set whenever system tests
are run on Windows to prevent stop.pl from making incorrect assumptions
about the environment it is running in, which triggers e.g. false
reports about named instances crashing on shutdown when system tests are
run on Windows. This issue has not been caught earlier because the
CYGWIN environment variable was incidentally being set on a higher level
in our Windows test environments.
Error reporting for parallel system tests on Windows has been broken all
along: since all parallel.mk targets generated by parallel.sh pipe their
output through "tee", the return code from run.sh is lost and thus
running "make -f parallel.mk check" will not yield a non-zero return
code if some system tests fail. The same applies to runsequential.sh.
Yet, runall.sh on Windows only sets its return code to a non-zero value
if either "make -f parallel.mk check" or runsequential.sh returns a
non-zero return code. Fix by making runall.sh yield a non-zero return
code when testsummary.sh fails, which is the same approach as the one
used in the "test" target in bin/tests/system/Makefile.

Until now, the build process for BIND on Windows involved upgrading the
solution file to the version of Visual Studio used on the build host.
Unfortunately, the executable used for that (devenv.exe) is not part of
Visual Studio Build Tools and thus there is no clean way to make that
executable part of a Windows Server container.
Luckily, the solution upgrade process boils down to just adding XML tags
to Visual Studio project files and modifying certain XML attributes - in
files which we pregenerate anyway using win32utils/Configure. Thus,
extend win32utils/Configure with three new command line parameters that
enable it to mimic what "devenv.exe bind9.sln /upgrade" does. This
makes the devenv.exe build step redundant and thus facilitates building
BIND in Windows Server containers.

named-checkzone does not use libbind9. Update the Visual Studio project
file template for named-checkzone to reflect that, thus preventing

Make stderr fully buffered on Windows to improve named performance when
it is logging to stderr, which happens e.g. in system tests. Note that:
- line buffering (_IOLBF) is unavailable on Windows,
- fflush() is called anyway after each log message gets written to the
default stderr logging channels created by libisc.

BIND system tests are run in a Cygwin environment. Apparently Cygwin
shell sets the SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX bit in its process error mode which
is then inherited by all spawned child processes. This bit prevents the
Windows Error Reporting dialog from being displayed, which I assume is
part of an effort to contain memory handling errors triggered by Cygwin
binaries in the Cygwin environment. Unfortunately, this also prevents
automatic crash dump creation by Windows Error Reporting and Cygwin
itself does not handle memory errors in native Windows processes spawned
from a Cygwin shell.
Fix by clearing the SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX bit inside named if it is
started in a Cygwin environment, thus overriding the Cygwin-set process
error mode in order to enable Windows Error Reporting to handle all
named crashes.

When libxml2 is to be used in a multi-threaded application, the
xmlInitThreads() function must be called before any other libxml2
function. This function does different things on various platforms and
thus one can get away without calling it on Unix systems, but not on
Windows, where it initializes critical section objects used for
synchronizing access to data structures shared between threads. Add the
missing xmlInitThreads() call to prevent crashes on affected systems.
Also add a matching xmlCleanupThreads() call to properly release the
resources set up by xmlInitThreads().

Commit 0a20176ca6 is an overly broad
backport: in BIND 9.11, dnssec-dsfromkey still defaults to outputting
both SHA-1 and SHA-256 digests. Ensure the documentation matches the
code by correcting the former.
